Perplexity AI has integrated DeepSeek R1 and Google’s Gemini AI models into it service.
DeepSeek R1, developed in China, is renowned for its powerful reasoning abilities. Now hosted on U.S. servers, it provides uncensored access to information while excelling in solving complex problems like math, coding, and logic. Its transparent reasoning process and cost-effective API make it accessible to a broad audience.
Gemini, Google’s “multimodal” model, adds another layer of sophistication. It integrates text, images, audio, and video into responses while working across Google services like Search and Maps. This makes it useful for creative and data-rich tasks. However, privacy enthusiasts might not want to use Google services.
Other New Features
Perplexity also introduced recency filtering and domain-specific searches, allowing users to refine their results for timely and focused information.
