Navigating the AI Landscape with Perplexity's Online LLMs

Hi there,

Today we are exploring innovative ways to leverage LLMs with the recent online data.

The Problem: Outdated AI Knowledge

Most large language models (LLMs) get trapped in the past, unable to pull in fresh data. They're like history books—great for what's happened but silent about today.

The Imperfect Solution: Manual Context Injection

We've been manually feeding context into prompts, a workaround as elegant as using a flip phone in 2023. It's a band-aid on a digital wound that needs stitches.

Enter Perplexity: Real-Time AI Responses

Perplexity AI doesn't just stitch the wound; it acts as a real-time knowledge transfusion. The pplx-7b-online and pplx-70b-online models are surprisingly swift, pulling in the latest, so you don't have to.

Pricing: The Cost of Being Current

For the 70B model, say goodbye to input token charges. Output tokens will run you $2.80 per million, and it's $5 per thousand requests. On a budget? The 7B model's your ally, with the same generous input policy and output tokens at a mere $0.28 per million. Same request rate applies. Source: openrouter.ai

The Practicalities: Single-Turn Conversations

Stick to single-turn conversations with these online LLMs. They're not the type to dwell on system messages. They focus on the query at hand—no distractions.
