I recently started checking out Perplexity after Jim suggested it, as I'd not heard of it before.
When I shared a bit about my present circumstance and described the lifelong interests fashioning my present identity, it offered to present a fictional story based on my contemporary experience, featuring recollections of past experience. I gave it the go-ahead.
It produced a tale that perfectly depicted my geographic environs, wrote a far-fetched story around what's going on now, and conjured rich memories of what I'd describe as a loosely plausible imaginary history, with nothing very specific beyond references to the very few characteristics I'd provided. While far from accurate, quite impressively construed.
I'm a long-time serious Excel guy. Today I asked Perplexity about an obscure MS Excel chart formatting problem I'd been perplexed with for weeks. It gave me the answer in a second by linking to a remedial Microsoft support exchange. I'm left grumbling at Microsoft and bubbling with Perplexity.
