Kai's verdictA-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python.S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.S-tier if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching.S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend.
