| Kai's verdict | S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone. | S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code. | S-tier for ad-hoc analysis. Makes you feel like a data scientist in 30 seconds. | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. |
