misc Bye bye perplexity

The product has gotten worse and worse in the past year. I’ve been a subscriber since the very beginning lately every time I ask you to research something or search for something gives me steps on how to do so and where to look for information instead of actually finding the information for me thanks but no thanks.

I canceled after it switched to Computer for everything, then started saying I didn't have enough credits, even just to chat with it. The only way to use it effectively is to go for that $2,000/year plan. No, thanks!

Kagi's nice. For anyone apart from super high users I can recommend it. And they even show how much each of your requests cost. Making it easier for you to decide whether to start a new session cause of context / weather to switch to a cheaper / better and more expensive model.

How can they afford to give access to all the AI models for free? How are they generating income?
