    Its a great product particularly for researchers, scholars, etc. Just needs to rebrand the name Perplexity. I associate the word Perplexity with perplexed.

      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😅

  8. @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.

    • @ghghgjkjhggugugbb

      January 7, 2024 at 12:16 pm

      Perplexity was there way before bard

    • @MrMentalpuppy

      Provides good sources

    Startups are the big tech of the future

    What are “ series B “? Share for private investment?

    Why does he look scared

    • @wokeymcwokeface1974

      January 7, 2024 at 2:07 pm

      He’s a young entrepreneur – probably first time on TV.

    • @astrophage381

      Not media trained

  13. @SmilingMoon-sw1kt

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

  14. @sodiumwaste

    January 7, 2024 at 5:18 am

    This is a very unconvincing interview

  15. @Gabeyre

    January 7, 2024 at 8:24 am

    Isnt what Perplexity is doing what Bing AI wants to do?

    • @user-jm6gp2qc8x

      January 7, 2024 at 8:50 am

      I have the same doubt

  16. @Gabeyre

    January 7, 2024 at 8:25 am

    Sounda like a 10 milliin users from The Silicon Valley show on HBO

  17. @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

  18. @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.

    January 7, 2024 at 1:38 pm

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

  20. @Wack373

    January 7, 2024 at 2:54 pm

    I’ve used it. It’s amazing how fast and fairly accurate it is. Kudos to the team!

  21. @MrMentalpuppy

    January 7, 2024 at 4:53 pm

    I too used it, it’s one of the best.

  22. @anirudhatalmale5575

    January 7, 2024 at 6:25 pm

    It’s extraordinary app. Can replace google

  23. @georgehart5182

    January 7, 2024 at 6:35 pm

    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)

    Waiting to be acquired and move on
