Kai's verdictS-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.A-tier. Best of a boring category. Use it for first drafts, then edit in Keynote if high-stakes.
