Perplexity offers to buy Google Chrome for $34.5 billion - Lemmy.World

Well this is somehow much, much worse than Google

Goshdarnit, and I was really enjoying perplexity and its relatively low hallucinations and good sourcing of information.
Yea, me too, I got a cheap pro subscription and use it often. It is a fast way to find info for me. But I guess behind the scenes they are tracking us in the worst possible way.
