Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.
