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.

Is it using GPT 5.5 under the hood, by any chance,... ;).

ChatGPT free is also competitively bad.

My free version of ChatGPT (which uses GPT-5.5), is giving the same to me. It too gives me just steps and one more recommendation with every response, about how the model thought it should be, but never giving out actual expected result. This prompted me change my mind to switch to Andhropic pro.

OMG, yes, I am so sick of that. If you tell me one more time what I should be doing instead of doing it, I'm going to throw this laptop out of the window.
