But even with these options, many are still missing the standout solution that brings a fresh perspective to what AI can do. Perplexity Isn’t Just Another ChatGPT Clone When most people think about ChatGPT alternatives, they think of popular services from rival companies like Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and maybe Meta AI. These are all great general-purpose AI chatbots. However, aside from a possibly better AI model, you don’t really get much more functionality by switching from ChatGPT to the other. When…

We’ve never been more connected to the web at any other point in time. At home? Most of your devices are likely connected, including your smart speaker. Out and about?
