a new search engine based on IA
a new search engine based on IA
I discovered this search engine.
Did you know it ? Is it the future for search engine ?
There's a very similar FOSS alternative that can be self-hosted called Perplexica. You know what's really funny?
When you ask Perplexity "Perplexity vs Perplexica", it returns this answer:
Recent evaluations indicate that Perplexica often outperforms Perplexity AI in terms of interaction quality and content relevance. In various tests, Perplexica scored higher in comprehensiveness and user-friendly interactions compared to Perplexity's different models (Vanilla and Copilot)
and
In summary, while both Perplexica and Perplexity AI aim to improve the search experience through AI technologies, Perplexica stands out as a more flexible and privacy-focused alternative. Its open-source nature allows for greater customization and control, making it suitable for users who prioritize data privacy and adaptability in their search tools.
LOL
Perplexity just acknowledged that it's worse than its open source competitor
Thank you for this usefull reply. (I did not understand the downvotes as it was a real question, not an ad for this website ) 👍
Many people just downvote when they see any mention of AI. Unfortunately the Fediverse is pretty stubborn on this topic. That's why I like the instance I'm on, @db0 is open to AI, and even develops AI tools you can run locally on your machine.
based on the Internet Archive? would be fascinating, but does not look like it
I did not know Iowa could be the base for a search engine.
Some languages, like Spanish, use a sentence structure that places adjectives after the subject, so IA works in many languages. "Inteligencia artificial" or IA in Spanish.
thank. you. not everybody speaks english
the massive negative number here gives me a lot of hope
Its not new. I've been using it for about a year. cGPT4o gives better answers but no sources so I use them both.
Bing also has the same functionality.
Just what nobody wanted!
what makes this so great? ( genuinely curious. slightly critical)
Perplexity isnt new. The hook is it links to the web articles its sourced the answer from. So you can (somewhat) vet the information isnt a hallucination or dog into the website for more info.
So basically like https://www.phind.com or similar AI search engines.
