Kai's verdict	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.	S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.	S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.
