After further simplifying their website design, Cursor has now published a series of "for beginners" videos on their YouTube channel called "AI Foundations" – seems they are looking for new clients.

Topics of each video:

  1. "How AI Models Work": This video explains the basic principles of how artificial intelligence models function, for example, how they process information and generate responses.
  2. "Hallucinations": This section discusses the phenomenon of "hallucinations" in AI — when a model generates confident but untrue or fabricated information that is not based on the input data.
  3. "Tokens & Pricing": The video is dedicated to tokens — units into which text is broken down for processing by the model. It also explains how the number of tokens affects the cost of using AI models via API.
  4. "Context": It talks about the importance of context for AI models. This likely refers to the "context window" — the amount of information (previous messages) that a model can remember during a conversation to provide relevant responses.
  5. "Tool Calling": This video explains how modern AI models can interact with external tools and APIs (e.g., search engines, calculators, databases) to perform more complex tasks.
  6. "Agents": The last video reveals the concept of AI agents — autonomous systems that can independently plan and execute a sequence of actions to achieve a set goal, using various tools.
