Its a great product particularly for researchers, scholars, etc. Just needs to rebrand the name Perplexity. I associate the word Perplexity with perplexed.
@milandin62
January 7, 2024 at 2:30 pm
You associate the word with another word that has the same exact root? Who’d have thought…

How is it different from Bing?

ikr they’re literally using gpt and bard????
@jimbobkentucky
January 6, 2024 at 9:59 pm
Doesn’t Bard already do this? I would like to hear how the are truly differentiated.

Same.. they are like Lyft, trying to get a slice of the market and hope to be acquired later.

Bard sucks… can’t even do basic math.
Perplexity is like an up to date bard + chatGPT combo that also includes footnotes of the exact source of claims it makes.

Perplexity was there way before bard

As a user of this product it seems like Google or Bing. I rarely use this app.

This is a very unconvincing interview

Isnt what Perplexity is doing what Bing AI wants to do?
@user-jm6gp2qc8x

I have the same doubt

Sounda like a 10 milliin users from The Silicon Valley show on HBO
@kp2718
January 7, 2024 at 12:08 pm
I like, it’s the most concrete out of all the major chatbots, only Bard sometimes is even more concrete, I guess it depends on how it’s set at the moment
@ChicagoJ351
January 7, 2024 at 12:46 pm
Cool, but I would question the 10mil user stat. I’d like to see more concrete data to see if that’s real, fabricated, or not as authentic as it may appear.

It’s really good. Avoid your biases and give it a try if you haven’t.

I really don’t understand what the investors are thinking with this group. It’s been a year now and the product is still lacking any differentiation from ChatGPT and M$ Co-pilot.
Moreover the branding is awful and the explanation in this interview is like an anti-sales pitch …
Want them to succeed, but I think it would make more sense for these engineers to go work at Amazon and make a better competitor with their AWS infra (as mentioned interview)
