Zed is pretty neat, but I don't have any use for LLMs even though everybody seems to be all about them lately.

Having LLMs integrated on your own laptop with ollama is a game changer.
It's basically "intellisense" on steroids.
You can press CTRL-Enter and describe what you want, and then the code will appear, in any language you want. It's almost like magic.
It saves so much time typing stuff.

I'm glad you like it. Hard pass. I'd rather type my own created code.

Yeah, I get what you mean.
I find it most helpful for languages I don't know at all.
I was able to add a feature for an open source Android app that I use because of this. The app was written in Kotlin but I have never used that language before. With the help of LLMs I was able to implement the feature by describing the pieces I needed in English.
It was an "aha" moment really. This changes everything.
