Kai's verdictS-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs.A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.
