Kai's verdictA-tier. The best open model for Vietnamese + Chinese. Don't sleep on it if you work in SEA.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
