- Snippet from Wikipedia: Perplexity AI
Perplexity AI, or simply Perplexity, is a web search engine that uses a large language model to process queries and synthesize responses based on web search results. With a conversational approach, Perplexity allows users to ask follow-up questions and receive answers with citations to its sources from the internet.
Perplexity AI, Inc. was founded as a privately held company in 2022 by Aravind Srinivas, Denis Yarats, Johnny Ho, and Andy Konwinski. It launched its flagship search engine on December 7, 2022, and has since released a Google Chrome extension and an app for iOS and Android. As of December 2024, the company was valued at US$9 billion. It currently has around 100 employees, and is headquartered in San Francisco, California, United States.
Built on Microsoft Azure infrastructure, Perplexity AI uses Microsoft Bing to research sources on the web. A free and public version of Perplexity employs the GPT-3.5 large language model by OpenAI, while the paid Pro subscription allows users to choose from a variety of more advanced models, among other features.
