AI lets me build workflows and environments I have wanted for years. I can finish in hours what used to take days, explore an idea without sinking a month into it, and review more code than I ever could alone.
That does not mean AI has solved software development. It has moved the bottleneck. Code is becoming cheap, but good ideas, clear requirements, architecture, communication, and judgment are not.

The short version is that AI is useful, but it is not magic. It is excellent at research, documentation, code review, scaffolding, testing, and shortening long debugging sessions. It is far less reliable when someone asks it to build complex software without understanding the system underneath.

If you want VS Code comfort without Electron drag, Zed is a sharp middle ground that still delivers LSPs, Vim mode, terminals, Git, remote development, and AI.

It’s designed to make navigating your filesystem faster and more intuitive by learning your habits. The more you use it, the smarter it gets, allowing you to “jump” to your most frequently used directories with minimal input.
Don’t have a Mac and need MacOS? No problem, run it in a docker container.
