00:00.750 --> 00:02.970
-: Hi, I'm gonna walk you through Perplexity

00:02.970 --> 00:07.500
and this is a LLM baked into a search engine,

00:07.500 --> 00:10.320
and I find it quite useful for doing research.

00:10.320 --> 00:12.090
So I can give you an example.

00:12.090 --> 00:15.120
We'll say, Who won the election?

00:15.120 --> 00:18.540
And it goes and does some search queries here,

00:18.540 --> 00:19.830
writes the search queries,

00:19.830 --> 00:21.060
and it tells you what it's reading,

00:21.060 --> 00:23.850
and then it provides a summary at the end here.

00:23.850 --> 00:27.240
So it'll give you the actual sources that come through,

00:27.240 --> 00:30.060
and in some cases it gives you structured snippets.

00:30.060 --> 00:33.720
So I find that the results that you get are much better,

00:33.720 --> 00:35.160
they're much cleaner,

00:35.160 --> 00:37.200
and I really like the citations.

00:37.200 --> 00:39.780
And so far, I prefer Perplexity,

00:39.780 --> 00:41.640
like I use it on a day-to-day basis

00:41.640 --> 00:43.500
instead of ChatGPT search.

00:43.500 --> 00:46.380
The reason is just that I think the summary

00:46.380 --> 00:50.070
is much more easy to read, and the citations,

00:50.070 --> 00:52.950
the way the citation are done is much better.

00:52.950 --> 00:55.530
So let's try another search here and say, you know,

00:55.530 --> 00:59.280
What are the latest fashions amongst teens

00:59.280 --> 01:01.143
in terms of streetwear?

01:02.970 --> 01:05.220
This is something an LLM wouldn't normally,

01:05.220 --> 01:09.360
but because it can search all these different topics,

01:09.360 --> 01:12.570
it can even come back with like videos and images

01:12.570 --> 01:15.510
and you get an interesting result here.

01:15.510 --> 01:16.890
This is really powerful.

01:16.890 --> 01:18.690
The other thing that I really like

01:18.690 --> 01:21.000
is you can then ask a follow up.

01:21.000 --> 01:26.000
You can say, okay, What about formal wear?

01:28.530 --> 01:30.390
And it will go back and do the searches

01:30.390 --> 01:32.973
and incorporate the previous context as well.

01:39.750 --> 01:42.540
The other thing that I quite like here

01:42.540 --> 01:45.990
is you can convert this into a page,

01:45.990 --> 01:50.010
and so if this is a specific page, then this is something

01:50.010 --> 01:53.100
that gets saved and kind of indexed by Google,

01:53.100 --> 01:55.470
and other people might be able to find this.

01:55.470 --> 01:57.940
I find it quite useful in terms of

01:58.800 --> 02:00.480
if I wanna do some research on a topic

02:00.480 --> 02:02.640
and then send it to someone on social media.

02:02.640 --> 02:05.577
And then this is, you know, something that I do,

02:05.577 --> 02:08.160
and I found that quite helpful.

02:08.160 --> 02:11.640
You can also share the searches just like, you know,

02:11.640 --> 02:15.180
other LLM type of tools.

02:15.180 --> 02:17.970
If you use ChatGPT, you can, you know, create,

02:17.970 --> 02:19.020
you can share that chat,

02:19.020 --> 02:21.660
that you can do the same thing here as well.

02:21.660 --> 02:24.723
But yeah, this is something I use pretty much every day.

02:27.060 --> 02:29.400
I actually use the Pro version

02:29.400 --> 02:31.920
because you tend to get better search results there

02:31.920 --> 02:35.250
and it seems to make more searches

02:35.250 --> 02:37.860
rather than just searching one thing and being done.

02:37.860 --> 02:39.630
So hopefully you guys check this out.

02:39.630 --> 02:43.770
It's the least hallucinogenic AI my experience,

02:43.770 --> 02:45.750
it's less likely to make a mistake than others.

02:45.750 --> 02:46.743
It's worth using.
