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 for kids learning. The tutoring UX is legit — not a generic chatbot dressed up.A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google.
