Kai's verdict	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.	S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously.	S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.
