Full Transcript

in a previous video I compared perplexity with Bing chat and with chat GPT perplexity just released a chrome plug-in which is supposedly going to make our browsing experience a lot better so let's take a peek at it and see what it's capable of so if you go over to perplexity.ai and then come up to the top right over here and click on Chrome extension you could come to the Chrome Web Store and install the extension now I've already installed it but typically there'd be a button here to add to Chrome you click that and it'll create this little perplexity box up in the corner so in this video I want to try a few things and see what we can do with it now when I go up and click to open it it gives us some options it can search the internet it can search this domain or it can search this page so let's see how well it searches futuretools.com let's select this domain and search SEO tools so it looks like it searched Future tools and it says there are a variety of SEO tools available from Future tools these include seo.ai content Edge on page ai ai writer and more and then it gives us the links to those specific pages on the site I mean that's already pretty cool it already sort of up levels your experience using Future tools so let's click on one of them let's click into SEO AI here and it opens up the SEO AI tool right here on Future tools let's try another one here let's continue to search this domain this time let's ask what's a good tool for turning longer videos into Tick Tock videos let's see if we could answer that for us clipmaker.ai is a tool that can help users convert their YouTube videos into clips for use on Tick Tock and Instagram it uses AI to generate short clips and can be used to turn longer videos into Tick Tock friendly content and then it gives us the source right here and there we go it brings us clip maker clip maker is a tool that helps users convert their YouTube videos into Clips to use on Tick Tock I mean holy crap dude this is awesome do this is actually a feature I was planning on building into the Future tools website where you could just ask questions and it will recommend the best tools based on what's available but in the meantime while we're waiting this perplexity tool searching this domain is pretty dang cool let's say what is a free tool to upscale an image all right image upscaler is a free tool that uses the latest AI technology to quickly and easily upscale images offers batch processing blah blah blah other free tools for upscaling images include AI image upscaler gigapixel AI upscaler let's enhance an AI image enlarger now these aren't all free because I know gigapixel is a paid one but it does have a free trial technically you could use it for free already that's pretty dang cool let's just go to mattwolf.com and I had this article that we wrote through AI in a previous YouTube video the future of businesses here let's see if we can get it to summarize this article so let's select just this page summarize this article using AI for business process s automation can help entrepreneurs maximize efficiency and performance with real-time insights and Analysis AI powered automation so it looks like it it's only citing this one page and it seems to do a pretty good job of it and this is the concise description so let's click on view detailed now the detail doesn't seem like it's a whole heck of a lot longer than the concise one this blog post discusses how entrepreneurs can use AI for business process automation to maximize efficiency and performance as well as blah blah blah blah blah okay so it seems like it can read articles as long as the articles are within a certain length now what I'm really curious about is how does it handle a YouTube video and it actually summarize a YouTube video I'm honestly not sure we're gonna find out right now so I jumped over to my friend's Channel AI entrepreneur here and let's take a peek at his latest video character turn around in stable diffusion let's open this up here let's see if it actually could do anything with a YouTube video let's go ahead and ask perplexity let's just select this page and say summarize this video all right so it actually gives us a recommendation it says summarize.tech provides an AI powered video summarization tool to get a summary of any long YouTube video like a lecture live event or government meeting so it's giving us suggestions but it's not actually able to summarize a YouTube video so all right so it's not super helpful with YouTube videos good to know now one of the examples that they gave on their Twitter thread was using it on Reddit so let's go to Reddit and let's think of a product review so we just got a PlayStation 5 at my house with the new hog Awards Legacy game so let's come up to perplexity just kind of leave it on the Reddit home page here and let's search this domain and say how do Gamers feel about Hogwarts Legacy let's see if it searches all of Reddit for us for reviews on Hogwarts Legacy all right it says Gamers generally have a positive opinion of Hogwarts Legacy praising its unique world and sense of exploration many find the mechanics thoughtfully implemented and the story and spell books enjoyable however some find the combat repetitive and the menu slow and then you can see it cites a bunch of sources here the microphone I'm using here is an Elgato Wave 3 so let's just type in what do people think of the Elgato Wave 3 microphone all right so it says people generally seem to have a positive opinion of the Elgato Wave 3 microphone some users appreciate its quality for streaming and chatting While others prefer it over other USB microphones they've used in the past they also mentioned it has direct monitoring capabilities and it can be beneficial to use with a boom arm however some people are hesitant to invest in it due to this price tag and then we've got a few reviews I'm hesitant to click on any one of these because as soon as I click on one of them it's going to close this perplexity box and I'm going to lose everything here let's go ahead and ask a follow-up question so okay if you click ask a follow-up it takes me to the perplexity home page plugs in the response to what it just did and now it's setting sources for more than just Reddit if somebody at perplexity is watching that's one points there is that it clears the deck every time this closes up here and I really wish it wouldn't maybe that's the limitation of a Chrome extension I don't know but that is sort of a frustrating thing if I click on one of the sources I'd like to be able to come back up to my Chrome extension and click on another one of the sources and see you know the second page in the source list all right let's try it over on Amazon now I have a camera coming in the mail called an insta 360 X3 that I'm really excited to play with because I'm going to be able to do some Nerf capturing with it so let's go ahead and click on the first listing here hopefully it's one with a lot of reviews 808 ratings so let's go ahead and ask perplexity on this one so let's go ahead and click this page only and say what are the pros and cons of the insta 360 X3 let's see if it'll give me a pros and cons list here all right so it gave me more sources than just this page again but let's see what it says it offers a 2.29 inch touchscreen improve voice control has an adjustable field of view alright so that's not really pros and cons let's go ahead and click on The View detailed and see if it actually gives us more here all right so now it's actually giving me pros and cons down here this is what I was looking for all right so all I had to do on this one was view the detailed version and it gave me some more so pretty much the same thing here everything about the camera the pros of the insta360 include improved design larger buttons vibration feedback improved image quality 72 megapixel photos 8K time lapse Pawns of the instant 360 include difficulty streaming live as well as an unknown price difference between it and the 1x2 so this is helpful because if I'm looking at a product on Amazon I could in real time instead of scrolling down and reading all the reviews just tell it to write me out the pros and cons of this product that I'm looking at let's see what happens when I search all of Amazon here let's just go ahead and do a search for this whole domain and say which insta uh 360 camera should I buy all right give me some information but I think I want to view the detailed and you can see that it found three sources all on Amazon here insta360x3 is another good option for those looking to buy an insta 360 camera has a half inch 48 megapixel 5.7 K it's important to consider your needs when deciding which insta 360 to buy consider factors such as budget desired features and functions alright so it's basically saying it's between the 1x2 and the X3 which I wonder if it can do searches on Twitter that'd be interesting so if I search this domain let's type in who should I follow on Twitter who talks about AI all right so for those interested in artificial intelligence on Twitter accounts to follow include AI for anyone equal AI Deep Mind and AI together they discuss topics related to AI let's click on view detailed see if it gives us even more all right so it pretty much suggests the same ones just a little bit more detail around each of them now I'd like to follow all these but again if I click into one of them it's go wig to close this little box and screw me up which is oh that's my big frustration with this tool other than that this thing is pretty dang awesome I'm probably just scratching the surface of what it can do there's been a lot of talk about the chat inside the Bing browser and quite honestly this does exactly what that does the only issue with this one that the Bing browser doesn't seem to have is the memory problem this one seems to forget whatever you left in that box coolest thing I've seen so far let's head on over to futuretools.io where it lists a ton of AI tools check it out if you haven't already also jump on the free newsletter if you haven't already because I send the five coolest tools every week as well as some YouTube videos some AI news and a cool way to make money with AI but that's not why I brought you here right now I just want to reiterate how cool this is for this website if you want to search Future tools with perplexity by asking Future tools a question it's a pretty awesome way to do it what are some tools that can help me with my YouTube channel bing bada boom there are several tools available to help you with a YouTube channel Glass YouTube summarizer free Chrome extension clip maker converts YouTube videos into clips for tick tock and Instagram extractify generates content from YouTube videos for Twitter LinkedIn and other platforms finally you can make an AI animated talking head with free tools and there's the links to all of them let's click on extractify here pulls up extractify right here inside of Future tools that in my opinion is freaking awesome between what it can do on Future tools where it searches the site lets you ask questions of Future tools what it can do on Amazon where it can search the reviews and write you up the pros and cons list of a product if you're looking for real human reviews on places like Reddit you can go and ask a question of Reddit and it will search Reddit for Real reviews I imagine it'll do the same thing for places like rotten tomatoes and IMDb and sites like that it summarizes articles for you like I just showed you on the matwolf.com blog lots of really really cool stuff I could see using this a lot there's a lot of potential with perplexity so so far I really like it better than what I've seen with the Bing chat and other similar search tools that are also Chrome extensions this is the one that I'm going to leave installed for now and use myself I really dig it one thing I beg of perplexity have it have a little bit of a memory if I click on a link in here and then I come in click on the Chrome extension again it still shows what was just in there it's my one wish of it thanks so much for tuning in I hope you enjoyed this video if you like all these cool AI tools and you want to learn more about them subscribe to
