Summary

  • ‘Perplexity’ is a social search engine that is similar to Google
  • It includes a feature called Social Search, which its developers hope will one day rival Google’s own social search functions
  • Currently, Social Search only uses results from Reddit, rather than a whole range of social media platforms
  • Additionally, its layout is very similar to the standard search function, rather than being specifically geared towards social media search results
  • It also does not categorise results as intelligently as Google does, and its images are not always as good.
  • However, Perplexity’s ordinary search tool is far better than Google’s, so with some tweaks its Social Search function could rival Google.
