- The class of threat is interesting and worth taking seriously. I don't regret spending a few minutes thinking about it.

- The idea of specifically targeting people looking for Crypto jobs from sketchy companies for your crypto theft malware seems clever.

- The text is written by AI. The whole story is a bit weird, so it's plausible this is a made up story written by someone paid to market Cursor.

- The core claim, that using LLMs protect you from this class of threat seems flat wrong. For one thing, in the story, the person had to specifically ask the LLM about this specific risk. For another, a well-done attack of this form would (1) be tested against popular LLMs, (2) perhaps work by tricking Cursor and similar tools into installing the malware, without the user running anything themselves, or (3) Hide the shellcode in an `npm` dependency, so that the attack isn't even in the code available to the LLM until it's been installed, the payload delivered, and presumably the tracks of the attack hidden.
