Hey Martin here đź‘‹

Truth be told, I was beyond busy building AI products of various kinds. (More to that soon, promised!)

I was so glad that one tool saved me in these busy times: Cursor.

In 20 hours I built from scratch a functioning AI SaaS Product (in stealth)

And since yesterday, they even added another feature: YOLO mode (letting the AI agent run without regrets).

What YOLO mode is precisely, and its power, I needed to share—so I made a short video for you with everything you need to know. ⬇️⬇️

Cursor 0.44 Update - Too fast for product development?

My Review

Currently, what I’m thinking is this: if you can prompt it the right way and foresee many steps, it’s like a drag race car. However, for most people, it might be too fast and too furious. I still need to learn how to hold the wheel.

Build Your Custom AI Agent: Download The AI Agent Script

Last week, I gave a workshop in Seoul at the AI Summit on how to build AI agents, along with delivering a keynote on the same topic.

Alt Text: A speaker is presenting on stage at the AI Summit 2024. The stage backdrop features large illuminated letters that spell “AI S 2024” and a large screen showing a webpage titled “Everyone can Code!✨” from GenerativeAI.net. The webpage promotes a course teaching users how to build software with AI without coding, featuring a prominent “START COURSE” button and progress information (3 lessons totaling 34 minutes and 23 seconds). The design is clean and minimalistic, with a green header featuring circular shapes and a white background. The speaker, a well-dressed man in a blue blazer, white shirt, and dark pants, is mid-presentation, holding a remote control in one hand while gesturing with the other. He wears a conference lanyard and has a focused, confident expression as he looks towards the audience. The stage lighting illuminates him against the contrasting blue backdrop, which includes the words “AI SUM” in white, partially visible. The scene conveys a professional and tech-focused atmosphere, with a clear emphasis on promoting AI-driven coding education to an audience likely attending for innovation insights. The setting is modern and minimalistic, with sharp visuals and a clear theme of AI education.

What people loved most was understanding how to build an AI agent with just one script.

To get started, you need to first understand the key elements of an AI agent.

Alt Text: A slide titled “What are the key elements of an AI Agent?” featuring a numbered list of five elements with brief descriptions: 1. User Interface: Example provided is “PoC: Terminal.” 2. LLM: Suggests using any large language model. 3. Tool & Actions: Mentions “any API” such as search, I/O database, weather (PoC), tickets, stock market, and also “Computer Use.” 4. Memory / Context Management: Example provided is “PoC: list.” 5. Agent Logic: No further explanation provided. In the bottom-left corner, the text “GenerativeAI.net” is displayed in green. The slide has a clean, minimalistic design.

Download the script here, add your OpenAI API key (or any AI model you prefer), and enter the respective API key of the tool you’re using. By default, it’s set to the Weather API.
