I'm sorry which LLM is this? What are its settings? How'd you get that out of it?

And how did it give sources?

I’m sorry which LLM is this?

It's perplexity.ai. I like it because it doesn't require an account and because it can search the internet. It's like microsoft's bing but slightly less cringe.

How’d you get that out of it?

The screenshot is fake. I used Inspect Element.

perplexity.ai

Like DuckDuckGo's AI's, but with sources? Sounds cool, thanks!

fake

Never knew that ddg had an LLM, will check it out. Thanks!

It's a proxy for a number of LLMs of choice, prompts anonymised before they're sent. A bit like how their search engine is anonymised Bing, or how their maps are anonymised Apple Maps. I'm happy with the service!

The answer is not real. The tool, on the other hand, is called Perplexity. It "understands" your question, searches the web, and gives you a summary, citing all the relevant sources.
