Learn Perplexity, step by step

Perplexity answers with citations, which makes it a research tool rather than a chatbot. The skill is choosing how deep to go and then actually reading the receipts.

Good for: Students, researchers, sales teams and anyone who needs answers with sources.

The tool: Perplexity, at www.perplexity.ai. AILE teaches it to learners 13 and older, in line with the provider's terms.
