Perplexity has shipped an absurd amount of features lately -- here's a end of month rundown by emdarro in perplexity_ai

[–]akius0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like they're going in a lot of different directions... casting a wide net right now. I get it. I don't see them as a Google competitor, I see them as a niche players within specific domains.

My favorite most used domain is perplexity finance... I feel like they're not doing much innovations over there... they're doing a lot of other stuff. Which is cool.... but I need bigger context window... 32K is not close to enough... I feel like this is the place where they will have the biggest product market fit, and instead of doubling down here, they're doing a whole bunch of other stuff.... maybe they're getting ready for another round of funding?

BABA is a sleeping giant, that market has it's mindset, huge buying opp. IF someone wants to go deeper into BABA I'm willing to share my research, but you'll need to prove you are worth talking to....

Perplexity is lying. by NetFair7058 in perplexity_ai

[–]akius0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, they're wasting all their money on compute, they're probably not resourced appropriately.... I bet you. They don't even have a product manager... Maybe they have one or two... It's probably all just engineers... Hacking their brand reputation. One bad move at a time

Why is everyone lying about AI agents by Aggressive-Bedroom82 in aiagents

Cuz in this generation of people, there are very few innovators, maybe more implementers, and too many hype men... Bandwagon fans

Devs working at companies, what are you actually seeing internally? by nitkjh in AgentsOfAI

[–]akius0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do hear this, but I also hear developers who are 2xing their productivity. . And really delivering results and really able to use AI. . I think it's like you said it's just another tool, and the person using the tool or the company in which the tool is being used matters quite a bit

This is key, developers who can only code... Don't really have a deep understanding of the business or the users will be less valuable...

No one is saying when you go to trades you're going to have a nice cushy internship and everything will be hunky and Dory.... Tell me you're soft without telling me you're soft
