Subject: Re: Way, way OT: perplexity.ai
I've been using Perplexity for a few months after a tip from of all people Morgan Housel, both the website and the app on my phone. I find using it with voice dictation saves time and typing. As others have said check the citations but don't assume that those original sources are right either. A statement on someone's website means nothing in itself and is significant only as part of a coherent pattern. Even Wikipedia is on occasion wrong.
But I find I converge faster to the truth with Perplexity than without it. It does what it's supposed to do; increase productivity.
