Here’s every answer for you.
What is Perplexity AI?
Perplexity is an alternative to traditional search engines, where you can ask questions and receive answers. The company claims that a curated set of sources backs up the answers. It has a conversational interface, contextual awareness, and personalization to help you learn your interests and preferences over time.
“Perplexity’s mission is to make searching for information online feel like you have a knowledgeable assistant guiding you, it is a powerful productivity and knowledge tool that can help you save time and energy with mundane tasks for a multitude of use cases”, says the brand.
Nothing Phone (2a) Buyers To Get Free Perplexity Pro
Perplexity offers a subscription model for its service apart from the free-to-use model, called Perplexity Pro. This subscription gives you access to the latest models from OpenAI and Anthropic. OpenAI’s GPT-4 is great for analytics and coding, while Anthropic’s Claude 2 is better for writing and summarizing.
Nothing and Perplexity partnership will allow the buyers of Nothing’s latest smartphone, the Phone (2a), to get the latter’s Pro subscription for free for a year, as announced by the CEO of Perplexity. However, only those buyers who get the phone in the first week after it goes on sale, which is March 12, will be eligible to claim the offer.
