Kai's verdictS-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.
