Smart of Perplexity to emphasize factuality and accuracy as a feature of its LLM API: Purpose-built for factuality, Sonar Pro outperformed leading search engines and LLMs in terms of answer quality in recent SimpleQA benchmark findings. They also claim that "Perplexity does not conduct LLM training on your data".

Damn! long live perplexity!

Love this! PPLX has replaced my googling completely. I don't know why google still has 90% market share in search. Inertia is strong I guess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I was just looking for a large model-based search solution, and it appeared right on time. Congrats on the launch!

absolute banger

I recommend Sonar by Perplexity because it's an amazing AI platform for finding answers! Using the best AI engine for query processing, it delivers incredibly fast and accurate results.

Finally, Perplexity opens up their powerful search-grounded AI engine as an API! This is huge for developers looking to build AI-powered applications with real-time, accurate information. The promise of being the fastest and cheapest offering in the market is particularly intriguing. Having used Perplexity's consumer product, I'm excited to see how their technology can be integrated into custom applications. The quick setup time and web-wide research capabilities could be game-changing for building knowledge-based tools. Would love to see some benchmark comparisons with other AI APIs, especially regarding cost and response times. Also curious about rate limits and pricing tiers for different scale deployments. 🤔

Is this like a knowledge base for you company built with AI that works by itself. Not 100% sure from the pitch if this is what it does.
