Kai's verdictS-tier if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching.S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.B-tier overall, A-tier if GDPR/data residency matters. Solid backup option.
