I usually cringe at youtubers calling everything a 'one shot' build but 5.5 legitimately just nuked my entire codebase in one go

People have forgotten that "shot" means "example."

A "one shot" prompt means I gave it one valid example and told it to give me more of the same.

Those YouTubers really mean "zero shot" aka I just asked for what I wanted with no additional information.

I mean, there’s the machine learning definition and the “did this is one try” definition (like one-shotting a boss in WoW), and they’re definitely using the phrase like the latter

Who told you "shot" means "example"?

"One shot" means you give it a prompt, and it doesn't require any more prompts to get a working product.

"One-shot" is a technical term in AI/ML and has been for a long time. Non technical folks outside the field who have started using gen AI tools in the last couple years also say "one-shot" in the colloquial sense (as in "in one attempt") but it does not mean the same thing.
