Weaknesses	Bot-joins (intrusive) Gets expensive at team scale	Google-only Can be slow on large corpora	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney Less style variety	Pricey for serious volume Long shots still feel off Ethics — easy to misuse
Kai's verdict	A-tier for sales teams. B-tier for solo users.	S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs.	S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.	S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.
