    It's awesome. I was in the garden doing work on my MTB. I needed the NM for one of the screws and didn't want to go upstairs and look in the manual. I started googleing and reading forums and at some point people always know better and start unnecessary discussions. So I started PerplexityAI app and asked it for the torque that needs to be applied to that specific skrew for that mountainbike... tadaa 10-12NM.

    I am 78 yrs young howerver ifdsssssssssss am experiencing some mild cognitive problems. I find it difficult to find and follow your cursor. It would really help me to follow to your instructions if you could use a larger cursor. I'mvglad i found your channel and i really like the way you present the information. Thank You.

      There is an option in windows settings to highlight the cursor. This is from perplexity:
      Here’s how you can enable this feature:
      Open Mouse Settings:
      Press the Windows key, type mouse, and select Mouse settings from the search results.
      Access Additional Mouse Options:
      In the Mouse settings window, look for a link to Additional mouse options on the right side and click it.
      Enable Pointer Location Highlight:
      In the Mouse Properties dialog that opens, navigate to the Pointer Options tab.
      Check the box labeled Show location of pointer when I press the CTRL key.
      Click OK to apply the changes.
      Once this setting is enabled, pressing the Ctrl key will cause Windows to display concentric circles around the cursor, making it easier to locate on the screen.

    1. I appreciate you not seeding your video with a whole bunch of dramatic gestures and whizzybangweird cut-ins.
    2. I appreciate the pace of your video, previous video with said whizzybang weird stuff was also delivered at a seeingly amphetamine level pace.
    3. I appreciate you sticking to your BLUF (Bottom Line Upfront) which you told us at the beginning of your vid and you stuck to it with excellence.
    I've been getting my feet wet with AI/Chat-GPT tools over the past couple of years, I may be up to my knees at this point, and have been relatively pleased with the feedback, as long as I stay away from queries where political bias comes into play, because that really does display the fallibility of us humans - at least in my probably not-so-popular opinion. :)
    I'm going to stick with Perplexity for a good while. I think on the research level it does an amazing job and also has some pretty cool features that I haven't seen (or explored) with other tools.
    Anyway, thanks again - well done. Definitely going to hit that subscribe button.

    I've been using PPX's collections like what I think the GPT's functionality works in OpenAI. The custom prompt can have sections that go really specific on how output should be formatted and even include a persona the AI should reply as (I.e.: you're an expert geologist explaining the intricacies of how volcanos work for a class of 8th graders).
    The API is far more limited than the one you get from OpenAI, BUT I don't think most users opt or care for that.
    I also really like how one can ask it to re-write answers as a different model. Claude2, for example, is not available in my country via the official Anthropic site.

      Are you using Co-Pilot? Why?

    • @SeeFoodDie
      @SeeFoodDie 11 месяцев назад

      @@tobyskaats1234 Absolutely. I leave it enabled 100% of the time.
      Using the copilot feature in Perplexity AI is like hiring a personal assistant to run errands for you. The assistant can be very helpful for complex, time-consuming tasks like planning a big trip or researching an academic paper. They ask clarifying questions, dig through various sources, and summarize the most useful information for you.
      However, using copilot can be overkill for quick, simple searches. For example, if you just wanted to know what time the new Dune movie is playing at your local theater, having a personal assistant compare and contrast ticket sales, projections, look up reviews, and map directions would be total excess. You could have just quickly googled the showtime yourself.
      When comparing AI assistants, turning on copilot is critical to compare results between products. Otherwise it’s just a basic search.

    I’d like to know if any of the engines are prioritizing sources that have been human verified vs. sources created by another AI model. Since so much content is being generated, it starts to lose accuracy and granularity and becomes an amalgamation of averages over time. Like a copy of a copy.

    the one thing missing from all these AI engines is the substantial lack of data . Yes they are impressive on the data they have been trained on and have access to , but the vast amount of data available is proprietary or paywalled or just not available on the internet. I can think of lots of questions I know will come up dead ends on any AI . I ask these questions all the time so I know the limits of the data sets they are based on. No data set--no data !!
