This week on Fresh From the Labs, Shilpa, Kevin, and Jared recount their recent experience at the PSL Cursor Meetup event, diving into the excitement, challenges , and fascinating community engagement. They unpack the audience feedback that revealed surprising preferences in the AI tool debate, specifically comparing Cursor and Claude Code from a developer's perspective.

The conversation goes deep on one of the most critical challenges in AI development today: context management. We explore why mastering context is crucial for effective AI coding, the limitations of current context windows, and practical strategies for navigating these issues, like using effective code comments to enhance the AI's understanding.

Looking to the future, the team discusses the exciting rise of capable local models that could soon run on our personal devices. This pivots into a crucial discussion on the security and privacy implications of AI deployments and how the emergence of "AI-first systems" is set to fundamentally change the software development paradigm. Join us for practical insights from the front lines of AI development.
