I'm perplexed on what Perplexity is.
Edit: Google AI says the following.
Perplexity Pro is a paid subscription that enhances the free Perplexity AI search engine by providing unlimited Pro Searches, access to advanced AI models like GPT-5 and Claude, and features like image generation, unlimited file uploads, the Perplexity Labs for content creation, and deep research capabilities. It offers more detailed and comprehensive answers than the free version, functioning as a powerful research assistant for users with complex information needs.

I asked it how it compares with ChatGPT. It said:
Perplexity AI and ChatGPT serve different strengths: Perplexity excels at providing accurate, source-cited real-time answers, while ChatGPT stands out as a creative, conversational assistant with broader content generation abilities.
Key Differences

  • Perplexity AI is designed as an "answer engine," focusing on fact-checking, research, and offering concise responses with sources from the web. Its knowledge is always up to date thanks to integrated, real-time internet searches, and it provides footnotes or references so facts can be easily verified.
  • ChatGPT, on the other hand, is more of a general-purpose conversationalist. It's built for creative writing, brainstorming, long-form content, and technical help. ChatGPT draws from a large but static knowledge base (with browsing as a paid feature), so facts can occasionally be outdated or need verification, as responses don't inherently come with cited sources.

There was a similar deal earlier for Samsung phone customers. I got the 1-year free sub for that. Wondering if I get this (I have the offer on my PayPal app), then will it start today, or will it continue for another 1 year after the current free 1 year expires (probably in May 2026). Anyone know?

How does this compare to other AI's?
Perplexity Pro comes with a bunch of models along with their own model. CGPT 5 is included.

Thanks. Perplexity is the AI that I want to use. And the pro version offers lots of options.

The folks at MacBreak Weekly were saying a few weeks ago that Apple was considering buying Perplexity. It's solid, and the fact that it "shows its work" (gives answer sources) is key for me and many others.

It's telling me I'm ineligible because I've previously subscribed to Pro when I've never even heard of this company until this thread.

Finally got it to work, it comes with free 6 months of "Headspace" but the cancellation instructions for that trial are unclear.

is there a way to disable auto-renewal? will we loose the sub if cancelling after signing up?
*lose. And no, you can cancel and your sub will remain active until the end of the cycle.
