Kai's verdictS-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend.A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.
