I'm surprised that, as a senior, you're able to offload your work to Cursor. Maybe it's light years ahead of GPT, but I'm also a senior engineer and get almost no usable code out of AI tools without having to double check and then reimplement its suggestions. I use them to generate ideas for algorithms mainly, and would not (could not) just copy-paste its solution into my/our codebase. It must depend on what you're building.

Being senior can mean completely different things depending on the job. I believe a senior whose work can be offloaded to Cursor at the extent OP claims may be the kind of senior who doesn't really need to deal with that much complexity in the first place.

I think it’s highly dependant on the language and framework and whether they lend themselves well to the way Cursor accepts context.
