What are you using AI (ChatGPT, Perplexity AI) for in your daily routine? (lemmy.zip)

Been using Perplexity AI quite a bit lately for random queries, like travel suggestions.

So I started wondering what random things people are using it for to help with daily tasks. Do you use it more than Google/etc?

Also if anyone is paying for Pro versions? Thinking if it's worth it paying for Perplexity AI Pro or not.

Never ran RAG, so unfortunately no. But there're quite a few projects doing the necessary handling already - I'd expect them to have manuals.

Got any links to those please?

Not comment-OP, but you could start here: [email protected]. the latest post is to a RAG tutorial, and there are various other resources in the sidebar.

Thank you. The "jonfairbanks" github repo is exactly what I was looking for, because FUCK sending any of my data to an AI company using their APIs for them to ingest my information to sell off to others.

You are the best!

You're welcome!

As far as I understand, all of them can be made to work locally (especially if your local model is served via an OpenAI-compatible API, e.g. see llama.cpp's server binary) with varying degrees of effort required.
