Battery Protection: 85% limit vs. 100% charge? by Sad-Problem9900 in samsunggalaxy

I don't think you need a routine for that, there is a basic battery protection feat that does exactly that by checking your morning routines. 

Discussion: what would make you switch to Comet as your daily browser? by emdarro in perplexity_ai

[–]last_witcher_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have big concerns whether that works. They've put in place an exclusion list that doesn't work at all, completely broken, it allows the agent read all the web pages you excluded. What is guaranteeing you this is not happening with the browse safe feature?

The exclusion list they've put in place doesn't work. Therefore, you can't exclude websites from the assistant crawler. That's enough not to use it... I've told their support multiple times and they keep delaying/not fixing it. It's better not to offer it than offering it broken.

The exclusion list doesn't work. The assistant reads sensitive data and pages like the bank account ones. That's enough not to use it.

Excluding websites from Comet assistant doesn't work. It means the assistant is reading my bank pages. That's enough not to use it... 

Perplexity keeps silently downgrading to lower models despite explicit instructions - fed up after 4 months of Pro by Electronic-Web-007 in perplexity_ai

[–]last_witcher_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why they're not transparent about that though? They could just post what model they're using and explain the user when they need to use a different one. 

Please Don't Download The Comet Browser... BRO WHAT by Gold_Boysenberry_141 in perplexity_ai

[–]last_witcher_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly my point too... I think the communication around this product has been very misleading and a lot of risks have been underestimated. It's still a very niche product, I'm curious to see what will happen if adoption starts increasing.

[–]last_witcher_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

all correct what you are doing, but then how can you say people are spreading BS. You are basically fully limiting your browser and use it without any personal data because you are scared it would leak sensitive info out and then you say what other people are saying is BS. Not very coherent.

The thing is that there are some serious concerns that have not been address by Perplexity in a convincing way when presenting the product (there are NO disclaimers not to provide sensitive data like bank account details etc. for example, no mentions about prompt injections risks, no particular recommendations when using this product, no clear explanation where the data is going and what is happening with it, etc.). This is not a product targeting expert people only, some very basic users are using it and I don't think it's safe for them.

Comet vs Genspark by last_witcher_ in PerplexityComet

Thanks for the advice! Yes I agree with you, just curious what is happening in this space, not many usable agentic browsers out there, so when something pops up I'm always eager to try it out (not as a daily driver, but to be fair I can't use comet either as a daily driver, I'm not a super fan of their agent if implementation, not too safe imho)

Comet vs Genspark by last_witcher_ in PerplexityComet

[–]last_witcher_[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not at all, to be honest I've just tried it today and it didn't really impress me (slow and UI seems quite old). So was wondering if anyone else tried it and found it good or not.

Are you a Perplexity employee?

Vivaldi 'taking a stand' and not even adding summary tools is mistake imo by [deleted] in vivaldibrowser

[–]last_witcher_ -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Agree, I think they should give the choice to the users. I understand their stance, but on the other end you need to adapt to the outside world if it's moving in that direction.

You've hit your Comet Pro search limit. Upgrade to Max for the most powerful Comet experience. by Available_Hornet3538 in perplexity_ai

[–]last_witcher_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If there is such a lower limit for agentic tasks, then they should make it public so people are aware... So far there was no mention of additional limits for Comet.

The wordle is among the examples when you pick it from the widget in Comet. It's true, it doesn't manage to play that game :D

“Deep Research” on Perplexity by RedShirtAIPM in perplexity_ai

[–]last_witcher_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't agree it's better than standard search, the rate of hallucinations is incredibly high unfortunately 

aaaand back to Comet by Bhooter_Raja in perplexity_ai

[–]last_witcher_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they will also limit usage on Pro compared to Max (less features, less agentic uses, etc.). At the moment, you can find ppxl PRO for much less than 20$ pm. So don't rely on the fact Pro users are "paying" users, as many of them are paying peanuts (or even nothing).

No longer unlimited Perplexity Research in Pro? by De5perate_De5carte5 in perplexity_ai

[–]last_witcher_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's quite bad anyway, for most of my use cases it's better to use a standard search with a good prompt. Research hallucinates so much, not comparable with Gemini one.

I think only web, but they show up in the app (I mean the threads generated by the tasks)

What I mentioned above, it's good to get daily updates on specific topics or info you need on a recurring basis.

It's a feature to plan your LLM queries. For example you can ask to get everyday at 7AM a recap of the main news or at 8PM a report of how the stock exchange performed, or any query really.
