Kai's verdict	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to.	S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.	S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs.
