Just wanna say you can also check ai-u.com for new or trending tools, they've got some cool stuff beyond these two.
Honestly, I’m just here for the memes both can generate, but ChatGPT wins on that front!
Perplexity feels more academic, like it’s made for serious info, not small talk.
For me, Perplexity's strength is that it cites its sources which is super helpful for research stuff.
I honestly think ChatGPT is way more user-friendly. Feels like it actually gets what I'm asking most of the time.
I find ChatGPT a bit slow sometimes, Perplexity loads answers faster for me.
Perplexity gives me more factual answers like straight to the point, which is sometimes better for quick info.
I use both depending on what I need. ChatGPT for chatting and brainstorming, Perplexity if I just want short answers.
I tried Perplexity first but switched to ChatGPT cause it felt more versatile and creative.
Anyone else notice that Perplexity sometimes struggles with follow-up questions? ChatGPT handles that way better.
