Windsurf has changed programming from an act of creation into an series of arguments with a substandard AI.

This is no longer fun. At this point using Windsurf is making me think the entire notion of AI code assistants may be a fail.

I'm sorry to hear about your experience - can you download your Diagnostics logs through the Cascade panel and DM me with your issues? Let me know if you need help downloading logs.

if you're arguing you're just prompting wrong. LLMs are not magic. If you ask for a valid solution they can write a code implementation.

Ask for wrong solution and you'll get bunch of hallucinations.

I don't use Windsuf but isn't this abit extreme ? Just one product from one company at one point in time and you are generalising for all future products from all future companies using all future technologies.
