Kai's verdict	S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.	S-tier for conversation. A-tier for TTS. Complement to ElevenLabs, not replacement.	S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.	S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.
