Mastering Cursor: plan mode, multi agent, & Composer 1

Brad is back from the grind and finally has something to show for his 4 AM coding sessions: the official SplitMyExpenses iOS app is live on the App Store! He shares the entire journey, from the initial manual coding attempts to leveraging AI tools like Claude Code that dramatically accelerated his development pace and expanded the app's feature set. Ben also dives into his own coding project, detailing how he rebuilt his accounting firm's website from scratch, ditching Squarespace for a custom solution powered by Cursor's new "plan mode." The brothers compare notes on how indispensable AI has become in their workflows, feeling almost handicapped without it.

The conversation then zooms out to the broader AI landscape, dissecting the pros and cons of different models and why Ben finally decided to cancel his Claude subscription. With hype reaching a fever pitch, they speculate on the imminent release of Google's Gemini 3.0, discussing what it needs to deliver to be a true game-changer in terms of intelligence, speed, and cost. To wrap up, they explore a fascinating and potentially alarming theory from "The Big Short's" Michael Burry about an AI bubble fueled by misleading accounting practices, leaving listeners to ponder if the current AI boom is built on a solid foundation or a house of cards.
