Presumably the tab based edit-prediction model + $5 of tokens is worth the (new) $10 / mo price. Though from everything I've read online, Zed's edit prediction model is far, _far_ …

RLHF is not the "RL" the parent is posting about. RLHF is specifically human driven reward (subjective, doesn't scale, doesn't improve the model "intelligence", just tweaks behavio…
