Cursor AI agents rebuild SQLite, revealing 15x cost variance

Cursor utilized a team of AI agents to reconstruct the SQLite database from its extensive manual. The agents successfully generated a replica in Rust that passed all tests in a held-out suite. The project also revealed a significant 15x cost variation depending on the specific mix of AI models employed. AI

    We had a team of agents rebuild SQLite from its 835-page manual.

    We had a team of agents rebuild SQLite from its 835-page manual. It created a replica in Rust which passed 100% of a held-out test suite. Interestingly, cost varied 15x depending on which model mix we used. https://t.co/d7dAxDBYyB
