Perplexity AI is a startup that combines Google-like search results with ChatGPT-like summaries. It is considered a major threat to both Open AI and Google. Perplexity AI offers a multi-modal search engine that can process various types of content, including URLs, photos, PDFs, and code snippets. The search results are prioritized based on an improved version of Google's PageRank algorithm. Perplexity AI is also beta testing a feature called "Perplexity Pages," which allows users to create and edit articles with the help of AI. The company is seen as a leader in the field of AI-based search and has the potential to dominate areas such as fact-checking and AI glasses. [Extracted from the article]
