A user on Reddit's r/cursor subreddit expresses disappointment with the current state of AI coding assistants, noting a decline in performance and a significant price increase across multiple models. The user reports that models like Composer 2.5, Opus 4.8, and GPT-5.5, which previously excelled at tasks like code analysis and correction, have become "lazy" and prone to errors.
