I hate the phrasing of this title. It makes it sound like it’s already happened. It should be Will Perplexity be the first AI unicorn to fail?.
I’ve only heard of Perplexity because I got a free year from my cell provider. Also does anyone else feel like this article is missing punctuation or something?
Strong agree on the lack of punctuation.
Medium has become a bit of a cesspool for low-effort hot takes. Sometimes the articles make a great point but are not very well written (as is the case with this one). But more often than not they are a single, unfounded, absurd rage-bait argument that’s been spun out into an article with the help of AI.
does anyone else feel like this article is missing punctuation or something
Definitely. But, given most of the glitches are comma splice, joinwords, or just plain punctuation missing, is this the best venue to point that out? The only thing worse than the punctuation here is the apologists.
All of them should fail. We don’t need all this shit on such big scale. It just chokes the planet.
Kinda interesting article. But really needs proof reading
I am using only perplexity pro, it’s my main AI assistant and really, the only one I have left while I have purged others. I have tried quite a few but perplexity seems to be doing the best for what I need AI for. Which is mostly doing the “Google” job.
No! I still have my free year from being a PayPal User!
Lets hope so! They manipulated the first Deepseek model, and reinserted US propaganda and garbage lies into the llm again. So even before groqopedia (sigh), Perplexity were the first private AI corporation that openly felt they were competent/unbiased enough to decide what ‘truth’ is, and they took it upon themselves to ‘fix’ the information before the information went to their users. Oh, thank you benevolent Perplexity Unt’s, for protecting us all against wewil ! (sigh)
After that ideological stunt, they simple cant be trusted for ANY information! They have shown that THEIR interpretation of ‘truth’ is the real truth, and that they have the GOD-GIVEN right, to alter other sources pf truth, on behalf of their users. So, all their users are victims of that ideological sh*t perspective. Perplexity WILL just re-doctor information as they, and their sponsors, see fit. Perplexity are just another US propaganda outlet - opinions sold for profit - and the sooner they collapse the better for humanity.
Well, oc all the other big AI corporations and their Unt owners/ceo’s do the same - just behind closed doors, so I’m eagerly waiting for the whole US AI bubble to collapse and pull down everything else with it… Go go China, Bricks+ and all of the global ‘south’ !
Reinserted US propaganda? Like the ability to talk about Tianamen Square? Man, Chinese propaganda is the worst. Fuck off back to .ml with that.
