Weaknesses	Image generation is weak No native web search on all tiers	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney + Ideogram Text rendering worse than Ideogram No fine control	General output behind Midjourney Can be overwhelming	Less agentic than Cursor/Claude Code Model quality varies
Kai's verdict	S-tier for reasoning and writing. If you only pay for one chatbot, pay for this one — especially for long work.	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	A-tier for creators training custom looks. B-tier for general use.	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.
