Kai's verdictS-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
