Why it worked

The video leverages the novelty of building a complex application like Uber in a very short timeframe (60 seconds) and in an unusual setting (an actual Uber ride). The use of an AI coding assistant like Cursor adds a layer of technological intrigue, appealing to a tech-savvy audience interested in AI's capabilities in software development.

Summary

The creator speedruns building a simplified version of the Uber app in 60 seconds using the AI coding assistant Cursor, all while in an actual Uber ride. They first ask Cursor to describe the app, then to build it using XJS and simple libraries, and finally demonstrate requesting a ride.
