AI research call summary #8: 04/25/2025
===

We opened with a mini-app crash-course. Easiest path: drop Farcaster’s LLM one-shot prompt into Cursor and let the agent scaffold your repo. Pull only the Neynar endpoints you need—keeps context lean, tokens cheap. Cursor vs. VS Code is back on the table. Copilot’s new Agent mode basically clones Cursor’s killer features. If you hate Microsoft bloat, VS Codium + Copilot Agent is looking viable; otherwise Cursor still wins on polish (some alts: windsurf & cline).

Connor dropped the big update on Negation Game. Scroll DAO integration is live—116 sign-ups, 25 active voices. “Cred” (500 on join) is play-money that only grows when you share how you’d change your mind. Positivity is free; down-votes require reasons.
