So, i copy pasted the responses of both perplexity, chat-gpt 4, and Claude 2.1, and what i get from it is that perplexity writes for people who have never heard of the subject before, Claude 2.1 writes like a government website (which i like), and chat-gpt 4 is in between the 2.

#

Has anyone else’s experience been different?

valid iris
#

I gave another prompt to perplexity, and had Claude 2.1 write the response, and for the second time it did not site the sources in the response, and i had to ask it again to do that

hello.. is it possible to change an account's email address? also are there any plans to go the username/password/2FA route in lieu of email prompts at some point?

also with Pro, what is the difference between regular queries with GPT-4 and copilot with GPT-4?

#

gotcha.. so the model is the same, just the inputs are more fine-tuned

While Quick Search gives you fast, basic answers, Copilot goes further. It asks for details, considers your preferences, dives deeper, and then delivers pinpoint results.

Co-pilot asks questions that are relevant to your search and search results giving you even more subject matter to ask if you couldn't already find what you were looking for

#

I've been learning with perplexity and I use co-pilot in addition to chat-gpt4 and all of my responses have been spot on.

#

Chatgpt-3 is great, however it's very surface level information.

Like a human-being continuously adding another layer in a sequence

valid iris
heavy thistle
#

My understanding is this... If you only know one context of a word, lets say "honey". You know honey to be this sweet substance that bees make for us. Well if you only know one context of what honey is then that creates a feedback loop because you only know that context

#

When you introduce another context to honey to a LLM, like you say honeymoon then it creates another computational layer and adds that to the sequence

#

learning more and more

valid iris
heavy thistle
#

Setting parameters and rules is what tailors the responses?

heavy thistle
# valid iris I don't know what this means?

The term "ubiquitous" suggests a widespread and constant presence, and in this context, it means that the LLM is not only available online but also has the capability to interact with and process real-time data from the internet.

#

You can't simply shove 100 results into llms for now

heavy thistle
sweet jasper
#

In 1 prompt, yeah

#

You can have about 24k words with gpt4

heavy thistle
#

1 query at a time is sufficient enough IMO

valid iris
heavy thistle
#

pplx is an online llm

#

...

valid iris
sweet jasper
# valid iris But an online llm could do this?

An online llm just means you are injecting external data, cleaning up html, then injecting the sources in the prompt. Accuracy may vary depending on how much your prompt dize + all the fetched results are. Some people drop whole documents with search then say llms are inaccurate, the context window is very fast exceeded

#

Perplexity will summarise sources with copilot because fitting 21 sources is quite expensive

#

I have found that I get the best results and repsonses when I tailor my phrased questions in a way that it can find the best results

heavy thistle

I think pplx works well for academics

Im not limiting its capabilities towards only academic pull requests, rather saying that it works very well at parsing through miscellaneous information to fetch you the best answer possible

#

as opposed to manual data

sweet jasper
#

Synthetic data is data generated by machine learning methods, or llms

#

Using generated data to train models

#

There was a paper that used 8 manual inserted examples to generate over 50k examples

#

The paper is called promptagator or something like that

heavy thistle
#

So my inputs vs already generated data scraped from web pages?

sweet jasper
#

The stuff scraped from web pages is human data most likely,

heavy thistle
#

So indirectly synthetic

sweet jasper
#

In a sense, Unstructured human data, since manual data is typically labelled

#

If you can solve AI feeding itself it's own generated data without model collapse and have it have enough memory, you can probably have AGI

So slowly over time...

Perplexity is scraping real web pages, which very likely have been written by human beings. Assume that is manual data. Say you do not use the Internet, and ask the llm to generate a list of ficticious facts about the moon. Let's say you have about 100 examples of it. Now you go train an LLM with those examples, and you do the same process again and again. What will end up happening is very likely the dataset being corrupted by the synthetic data, while originally the llm was trained on human labelled data.

The LLM is 1 component, the search is another, llms are stuck in time, all perplexity is doing what you would do in chatgpt, you can copy paste a wikipedia article and your question, the effect is the same

sweet jasper
#

The web is slowly being filled with LLM generated content, which then perplexity will scrape synthethic data, as thats all that is on the web

valid iris

Okay, so, my big question is: do the makers of perplexity want all of the things that perplexity knows to be generated by ai, or do they want all of its knowledge to be generated by humans?

Because i can’t imagine why they would want all to its knowledge to be generated by ai, because then experts from fields relevant to the knowledge would have to manually verify it.

A lawyer bought a box of cigars and insured them for, among other things, fire. Within a month, he had smoked them all and filed a claim against the insurance company. This is a true story that was reported in the newspaper. In his claim, the lawyer stated that the cigars were lost in a series of small fires. The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason that the man had consumed the cigars in a normal fashion. The lawyer sued the insurance company and won. Rather than endure a long and costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the ruling and paid $15,000 to the lawyer for the loss of his cigars. After the lawyer cashed the check, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of arson. The lawyer was convicted of intentionally burning the insured property and was sentenced, no kidding, to 24 months in jail and a $24,000 fine.

Everyday I open Perplexity and pray for the day the gods of AI will decide to deliver an API as rich as this web expirience. This multimodality blows my mind everytime. All in an instant... sources, content, related, images, video....

#

There's simply no competitor that deliver as much content for a prompt as Perplexity does.

To be able to whitelabel this and configure to offer custom expiriences for corporate users would be fantastic. Let alone other applications...

Dear,

I am writing to inquire about an issue I encountered with my subscription. Previously, I sponsored six individuals under the impression that this would qualify me for a discount on my subscription renewal. However, I was surprised to find that I am still required to pay the full $20 fee. This is particularly disappointing as I made significant efforts to sponsor these individuals, expecting a discount in return.

I plan to renew my subscription at the beginning of next month, coinciding with my payday. Could you please advise on how I should proceed with this renewal, considering my sponsorship contributions?

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,
Rudy.

Hi, I used the promo code to get $40 off for Perplexity Pro. I had thought that this would give me 2 free months, but it says that my plan renews on December 28. So will I get 2 months free, or would I have had to sign up for a year to get the full $40 credit?

Hey @hollow obsidian! It's not trolling you.) I always recommend editing the query where you see the model got you wrong, rather than telling it "you are wrong" in the following messages. If it doesn't help, you can copy the query, delete the last answer that wasn't what you expected and then ask again differently or start a new thread.
One more thing that you can do, is to try using the instruction & search operators like "-pizza" for this case. e.g., https://www.perplexity.ai/search/Rephrase-this-A-lVqtMCBDRrG_HOtb3h48MQ?s=c
You can put some instructions in your collection AI Prompt, like this:

Hey, I am playing about with the API and i pulled out this info for the models this afternoon. it may help you. its not deep or long


codellama-34b-instruct: This model is trained on a dataset of programming instructions. It is best suited for answering questions about programming.

llama-2-70b-chat: This model, which consists of 70 billion parameters, is optimized for dialogue use cases. It is designed to generate text based on the input it receives, making it suitable for applications such as chatbots or virtual assistants. 

mistral-7b-instruct: This model has been fine-tuned for instruction following and question answering tasks. It  excels in areas like mathematics, code generation, and reasoning. However, it's important to note that while Mistral 7B has shown impressive performance in many areas, its limited parameter count also restricts the amount of knowledge it can store. The model is prone to common prompt injections and can hallucinate.

pplx-7b-chat: This model is a language model developed by Perplexity Labs. It's part of a series of models that are designed for various tasks, including online interactions and chat applications. The "7b" in the name likely refers to the size of the model, indicating that it has 7 billion parameters. This model is optimized for generating human-like text based on the input it receives, making it suitable for applications like chatbots or virtual assistants

pplx-70b-chat-alpha: This model is a language model developed by Perplexity AI. It's built on top of open-source large language models (LLMs) and is designed for chat-based applications. It's likely designed to generate human-like text based on the input it's given, similar to other chat models.

Also another question. How would I instruct Perplexity AI to find or consider more sources? Usually, when I ask a question, it considers like 4 or 8 sources but I bet there are hunderds more unique sources.

#

I'd pay more if it could like consider 100 sources and get the best mashup answer from 100.

#

Right now, almost always Wikipedia is the first source, and any answer to any question begins with the 1st sentence from Wikipedia.

velvet anvil
#

I don't think it can go beyond 25 for a question

I've also read that more sources don't necessarily lead to better answers as the LLM has to parse through more Contextual information. It's been said that the quality of the sources is more important.

However, if it's really important to you, you could probably compile a pdf and attach it

#

As for Wikipedia, you could specifically prompt to avoid the site

So I have this weird experience with Perplexity. I attached this file and asked the question "What is a Rick Roll?"

This is a test. 

A rick roll is a kind of sushi roll popular in southern california.

And the response was...

A rick roll is not a type of sushi roll. Instead, it is a popular internet meme or prank that involves misleading someone into clicking on a hyperlink that leads to the music video for the 1987 Rick Astley song "Never Gonna Give You Up." The person being "rickrolled" is typically expecting something else, but instead, they are unexpectedly redirected to the music video. This prank has been a widespread and enduring internet phenomenon.

I'm not sure if I am happy with this response. I'm also not sure if it is bad. It's probably a good thing that an LLM tells the user that their attached file contains misinformation. On the other hand, it explicitly contradicts explicitly attached data. What if you, as the user, believs the attached file is more truth-y?

#

Related: the UI doesn't make it obvious how to limit the query to just the uploaded file. I prefixed my query with "you must only use the attached file for sources".

velvet anvil
#

Used writing mode in the above thread, changed the prefix slightly. Seems to work.

I think I wasn't clear. Adding "You must only use the attached file for sources" worked. However, it is not intuitive that is what one should do.

#

Ok dumb question. When using perplexity pro and choosing a model. It there an advantage to using the GPT4 or Claude models over Perplexity. OR does using these other models give me additional benefits. I’ve noticed that Perplexity will cite sources. The others will provide them as additional support. Just trying to understand the reasoning why you would choose one over the other. Part 2 - is there a reason to have subs to the other 2 models (chatGPT or Claude) if you have the perplexiry pro. Currently I have all 3.

dense path
#

So if we can get both chat gpt4 and Claude for 1 perplexity membership. Is there any reason to have a direct membership with any of those LLM providers? Seems like perplexity is giving us a 1 stop shop

Well done. I’ve been building a bunch of iOS shortcuts and other tools like an eye gaze overlay and IoT to make this the tool of choice for the accessibility crowd. There’s an adjacent business case there that’s actually pretty compelling but that’s aside the point, I’m just happy you’re working the problem to build an accurate tool

Yes, I believe the chat convos are private. They take reasonable security measures to protect users personal information. You can email Perplexity support for more info but I think it's very unlikely for someone to have unauthorized access to your chat history unless you share the link to the thread. Users maintain ownership of content they upload on the site so you can delete the chat history at any time. You can also opt out of your data being used for AI improvement. Would use a placeholders like [Person A] or pseudonyms to remove any personal identifiable information from the prompt.

Hello! Could anyone tell me the purpose of Perplexity in a few words/sentences? It feels like it's just an amped-up search engine. It feels like it crawls the web and tries to gives you the best info for a very specific query. But Perplexity feels terrible at giving other advice. I use GPT for story outlining or brainstorming sometimes, but Perplexity feels extremely limited for this. I am a pro user by the way.

Do I not know how to use Perplexity, or is it just not build for that?

#

Multimodal model that can view images, based on the original GPT4 but with longer context etc

#

That model is available on the openai API however OpenAI themselves have said the model is not stable and there is a hard cap on the model use via the API (100/day) which wouldn’t work out for perplexity

#

So right now perplexity uses the non-turbo version of GPT4 available on the api

#

The major differences right now are that perplexity cannot look at images, and the models knowledge is still at 2021

#

However perplexity makes up for knowledge through search anyway

#

Whenever gpt4 turbo is released stably then perplexity plans to switch

#

Wait have they??

Just read the other channel

Does perplexity ai have any limit for the number of questions asked from a pdf ? For free account?

#

Yes.

#

Let's say I upload a pdf. I have an assignment of 80 questions. Chatpdf only allows 20 per day. Is there any similar limit for free users on perplexity ai?

meager sparrow
#

so you are asking if perplexity limits the amount of questions you can ask from a PDF on the free version as compared to the premium version where you get privileges?

distant aurora
#

Correct

meager sparrow
# distant aurora Correct

Oh ok well on the free version they is a limited amount of times you can upload a pdf for a source

#

So you need to get the premium version of you want to upload it constantly

distant aurora
#

Yes. I know that. 3 pdfs per day. But is there any limit on the number of questions asked from the pdf?

#

I didn't come here asking questions without looking it up.

Wasn't sure if that's allowed.

Great then. I'mma just merge my 2 pdfs and use perplexity with unlimited questions instead of chatpdf.

# tame current Why is the text so spammy with keyword stuffing? how can i avoid this?

did you ask in your prompt to include synonyms? My first guess would have been there are not many for restposten
https://www.openthesaurus.de/synonyme/Restposten - a Schnäppchen is not a Restposten etc. Or use a follow up prompt to use different phrasing - "use less Restposten" or a varation thereof might work.

tame current
spare latch
# tame current Ok i can do that. But i dont understand why Perplexity is so spammy. quality not...

Depends on how well crafted your input prompt was.
"schreibe 20 detailierte fragen über partylite restposten.
for seo reasons, avoid using the word restposten too often, instead use synonyms or shorter sentences. Create all output in german. "
used less Restposten but also this is not a good prompt either. f.e. it prompts to talk about "Partylite Restposten" and instead should have a extensive business description with the prompt as well an acceptable variation list. Looking through the results, i see several times where normal human editor can remove the word with a small change.

Like the perplexity bot was such an aid in making conversation run smother between the members in my community, say I wanted to convert 2 cents to some other currency I could do that without moving to a different app and everything was included in the running conversation and all members could see it

#

or you could use it for fact checking, for calculations and so much more

#

we have mentioned the bot around 400 times in our server in the time of 2 months

#

And I would assume the output tokes are less than 1 million because 1 million seems like a huge amount 🤔

#

So it would cost around 7-9 dollars per 4 months technically given my use case

#

I am not that satisfied with the offline results compared to the online version

zenith atlas
humble swan
#

I wonder if that would be the case also with perplexity api

zenith atlas
#

As you can set system prompt, you can just say to it to write short answers and it will mostly work

humble swan
#

but not always

#

sometimes you would for example ask it to make the output 2 times shorter and it would just get rid of one sentence

humble swan
#

That seems like it would reduce the prices a lot given that you now decide which model to use per use case

zenith atlas
#

I although found regular llama-2-chat to be better at creative writing and following different role, while pplx-chat is mostly informative and dry

#

good to have both in API

humble swan
#

I assume you can use any API you want

#

As long as you have the credits

#

But do you know if you're charged after you use 1000 tokens or before you even use any prompt

#

For the online version

zenith atlas
#

dont know

humble swan
#

Let me check again

zenith atlas
#

and mistral-7b is priced the same as pplx-7b

humble swan
#

guess ill put in 10 usd and work from there

#

you convinced me to go through with this project

zenith atlas
#

I had 0 knowledge of how it works, so perplexity with gpt4 made a bot instead of meKEKW

humble swan
#

I do have quite a extensive amount of experience making discord bots so that would not be a problem for me

#

the only thing I was worried about is the pricing, and it does not seem to be that much after all

#

From what I am reading Mistral AI model is intended for normal tasks like GPT, only difference is that its open source
And Llama seems to be the same only that it allows companies to customize them

zenith atlas
#

yes, although mistral is 7b so while it is cheaper it is way less smart then 70b model, and its instruct version not chat version. Cant say for sure all the difference in this two versions, but something worth noting

humble swan
#

mistral seems to generaly output shorter answers, and sometimes thats what you need

humble swan
# humble swan

I am looking back at the perplexity discord bot and the answer is similar to pplx7b-online ( same prompt )

tame current
#

so far i like llamas 70b

humble swan
#

but it gave like one very small definition, then it gave some other scenarios the word can be used in

for long answers I also like pplx-7b-chat, it mentioned the definition then mentioned the fields it can be used in

tame current
#

How about for writing somethin up -- whitepapers, emails, resume etc.

humble swan
#

but mistral instruct did the task the best I think

tame current
#

I'm finding llama does a way better tjob when it comes to writing

humble swan
#

I asked for a short answer, and mistral gave me the most important information without all the details

humble swan
#

one important mention is llama is considerably slow compared to all the other models

#

2-3 times as slow

#

I am actually intrigued by the fact that PPLX 70b outputs much smaller respones compared to the 7b equivalent

#

also not to mention that only pplx7b online has proper formating

tame current
#

what does the billion refer to?

zenith atlas
humble swan
# humble swan

I think the llama and mistral actually performed better

#

I am not sure about the accuracy of the information because I did not check, but from what I see the infromation is presented in a better way

#

mistral gave actual statistics also

humble swan
zenith atlas
humble swan
#

Guess that is a limiting factor, perpelxity bot had that

#

pplx7b-online and llama-2-70b-chat looks good to me

#

I wonder would one be able to specifiy a focus for the pplx api

Does anyone know of a site that goes into detail about what each models excels and what it sucks at? For example Claude and ChatGPT have specific strengths and weaknesses. Claude excels in writing tasks, leveraging a large context window, while ChatGPT, especially with Code Interpreter, shines in data analysis and generating detailed marketing strategies.

Hi! Does someone know how i get Claude2.1 to exhaust its output capacity? I always get less than what i prompted it to make; e.g. i prompt 500 words, and i get like 100. I also tried specifying tokens, but to no avail..

How good is Perplexity 70b model? Is it better than gpt-4?

#

@halcyon coral have you used it?

Has anyone ever tested pplx-70b-online in the MMLU? https://www.threads.net/@sundarpichai/post/C0hEX1RAZyg/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Opinion of experimental LLM, ist it better than gpt4 or claude 2?

That is what I am wondering

Hey guys. I'm returning to work now at Perplexity. What's different about this Claude-2.1 compared to the previous one? And what new does this Experimental model bring?

It thread after thread after thread it literally just makes you ask the question over and over and over again I come back a month later and I think maybe I'll give it another shot the thing is literally worse than searching the Internet with dial up it's literally would take a shorter amount of time if I got out my mom's a O L disk

#

less frustrating the sounds better too

Not sure if this has been asked. When will Perplexity get the ability let you ask questions about a screenshot. For example:

wraith crow
lilac cipher
#

Second, the file upload UI does not permit png files for some reason.

wraith crow
lilac cipher
#

So I manually replaced the filter with *.png to upload a png file. I then asked the same question: Can you look at this image and tell me what all these sensors mean?

And I got this result:

#

can you try it and see what you get?

#

Not sure if it is just user error on my part

lilac cipher
#

yes

Is it customary in Discord to reply instead of creating a thread? I honestly do not know how to use Discord.

Alright you'll have access to the pro channels now. Also it does seems like it is indeed not working at the moment sorry for the inconvenience. I'll dm one of the team members about it.

Hello community. Can someone please explain to me how Perplexity AI Search and Copilot Follow-Up Questions work step-by-step simply?

Cause as I understand it’s like:
User request -> google and webpages web scrape -> some summarization magic -> though into ChatGPT -> done

https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.02462 interesting paper from Google deepmind that tries to define AGI with 6 first principles. On a related note, what is the reason for this AGI push. The whole it will do everything better than us really skips over the fact of why we want to build this in the first place imo.

Hey, I just discovered this service. I was wondering why I should pay for the pro version, if it's worth it and stuff. Considering it's worth the same as chat gpt plus.

I am using claude-2.1, but I find that the actual experience is still different from Claude-ai.

#

When I use the same instruction for claude.ai and perplexity.ai respectively, the results are quite different. Why is that?

I don't understand

#

why?

@halcyon coral hey. What can I do to contribute to make the ai better if it can't find answers in a pdf that can easily be found using find option in pdf reader?

#

Like, the literal part of the statement was there in the pdf but perplexity couldn't find information relevant to question.

halcyon coral
distant aurora
#

Ah.

#

I see.

#

It missed an entire paragraph on collaborative bargaining.

#

That explains why.

#

How many pages do you recommend I should feed at a time?

#

Also, will it be any better if I upload it as 3 pdfs instead of merged one for a thread?

halcyon coral

Is this an error?

It keeps popping up for some questions.

Hi again! I was trying to summarize a research paper using a custom prompt, however, i noticed that the requested length was not achieved. I then tried the prompt in the screenshot, receiving the following answer in return. Is this something that happens often? Context shouldn't be the problem; I'm using Claude2.1:

Edit: The paper should be complete, and the pdf is not password protected
