Kai's verdict	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.	A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class.	S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.
