I am new to Cursor and been traying different models, and Grok is fast and accurate, BUT is way too eager to make changes, so need to be constantly constrained with plan and ask modes. But is excellent in coding, still for linguistic and literary capacity Claude Sonnet continues to be the greatest.

Grok 4 often performs very poorly because of Cursor. Grok 4 Fast is very lazy and shallow. Grok Code Fast is very good for simple tasks.

Any referrings that Grok models works better “outside” from Cursor IDE?

I use Grok-4-fast-reasoning as the default model for my "Ask” mode. It’s surprisingly great and consistent. Grok 4 is slow af so I use GPT-5 or Sonnet 4.5 over it.

Grok 4.1 exists but not in Cursor

As someone who’s been using LLMs for over three years across pretty much every major model, Grok-4 stands out as one of the least reliable. It regularly produces overconfident answers even when its internal data is clearly inconsistent. It also has a habit of merging unrelated details to maintain a …

I think it’s just you. I don’t mean any disrespect but my mileage varies greatly. Claude, composer-1, Gemini and GPT are much more stable. Sometimes they are not as fast, but I prefer constituency and accuracy over speed.

Is it me or Grok is one the fastest and most accurate models
