Kai's verdictA-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.A-tier. The best open model for Vietnamese + Chinese. Don't sleep on it if you work in SEA.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. If you already love Duolingo, worth it. If starting fresh, try ChatGPT Voice instead.
