Kai's verdict	S-tier all-rounder. If you want one tool that does everything okay-to-great, this is it.	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.	A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks.
