Kai's verdictS-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.S-tier for speed. When latency is the product, start here.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.
