Nomad Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I have been using Perplexity AI for some time for topic research, especially when I want to research on the content I am working on. Let's say I want to do some research on a new game so that I can get ideas for the article. I go to Perplexity AI, it will not only answer my question but even provide follow up questions that I can look into. This makes this AI tool ideal for search. However, out of habit I frequently go to Google for online searches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Bing has Copilot and Google has Bard. In other words, Google and Bing both have Generative AI tools. Therefore, I believe Perplexity AI will have a hard time competing with Google and Bing. Perplexity is better than Bard or Copilot but I do not think Perplexity will be able to outperform Google and Bing for online searches.

Dilip Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) Looks like I missed this one. Another search engine? I tried now, and it is nice. Will try to use more and give some feedback. First impression, good. Edited January 15 by Dilip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maria Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Perplexity is Good but I really doubt that it will outshine Google and Bing. Actually Google has Gemini and Bing as Copilot, I doubt that Perplexity has any chance to outgrow these Generative AI tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
