Nobody is one-shotting anything nontrivial in Zed's code base, with Opus 4.5 or any other model.

What about a future model? Literally nobody knows. Forecasts about AI capabilities have had horrendously low accuracy in both directions - e.g. most people underestimated what LLMs would be capable of today, and almost everyone who thought AI would at least be where it is today...instead overestimated and predicted we'd have AGI or even superintelligence by now. I see zero signs of that forecasting accuracy improving. In aggregate, we are atrocious at it.

The only safe bet is that hardware will be faster and cheaper (because the most reliable trend in the history of computing has been that hardware gets faster and cheaper), which will naturally affect the software running on it.

> And also - doesn’t that make Zed (and other editors) pointless?

It means there's now demand for supporting use cases that didn't exist until recently, which comes with the territory of building a product for technologists! :)

Thanx. More of a "faster keyboard" so far then?

And yeah - if I had a crystal ball, I would be on my private island instead of hanging on HN :)
