Very useful, use it one my academic study, mostly reading research paper. i use to ask critical question (signals), which show me critical answers. instead of tranditionally have to skim through 10k worth of words for about 100 words that actually matter

It is amazing! If google completely avoids your answer and misses your point and you have to search forever for the right site to tell you the answer. Use perplexity. If you get it, you'll NEVER regret it.

I did not like this plugin. I can't write articles, I can't do much else. I don't see any benefit from it

I have been using Perplexity extension since it has been released on the chrome web-store. I am truly impressed by its features, the prominent ones include: (a) the ability to search within a webpage which makes the experience richer and very personalized, (b) the one-click summary which is often what I am looking for in long winded pages, and (c) the ability to share a link to my search enabling a collaborative experience.

While conventional search organised the web by ranking them, Perplexity AI takes it a step further by organising information within and across pages and this chrome extension is truly a big gradient towards furthering reach and lowering the barrier to entry.

Another aspect that truly stands out is the search response time. Summarising a web of links using LLMs and displaying them with citations should be ideally expected to take longer than conventional page-ranked based searches. However, it seems like they have a very robust and efficient system in place that is very fast compared to other conventional and AI powered search interfaces out there.

One thing I would love to have in my chrome extension is the ability to ask follow-ups within the chrome extension window itself as opposed to having to be redirected to their site. Another good-to-have would be to see the "popular searches" and "my history" on the extension itself. Would greatly enrich the experience IMHO.
