there's a brand new AI tool from the company perplexity the AI search engine it's called perplexity pages and it might completely change how you write content let me just briefly show you how it works and then I'll dive a bit deeper but all you have to do is type what you want your page to be about okay let's say I'm going to write about history of AI here that's all I have to type in and look at what this does here in real time is creating a table of content right here on the right side
and with each section it's giving us a heading and it's writing each section I'm going to show you some of these editing Tools in a second that it has and then it's going to continue going down the list here and on top here it picked an image for us this is a royaltyfree image it found but you could use AI to generate your own to I'll show you that in a second and as I keep going you could see each section is going to just write here in real time and when you get to the
bottom of it it's going to actually let you keep going and add a new section here just by giving it a prompt and it's going to suggest different prompts that you could add like early Ai and Robotics I could just click on that it's added a new section you see I have five different sections now and I could go ahead and continue to write this so let me show you exactly how to get here if you sign into your perplexity accounts and if you're not familiar with it this is an AI search engine so typically
I use perplexity and I have a paid version but you could use it completely for free but all I was doing before is on the homepage I would just ask anything that required in internet search so if I just looked up history of AI and this is basically how perplexity gives you answers so it's going to give you an answer like this and it's going to be more conversational and it's going to give you little sources here that you could click on to go directly there it's going to give you some images is going to
pull up and all your links are going to show up over here so a really great Search tool but now in the library tab right here if you press the plus sign there is this thing called page and this is the perplexity pages that I showed you and if you don't have it yet this is just rolling out right now and they're slowly rolling it out to all accounts but right here you could go ahead and type in what you want this to write about and then right over here which is a useful option is
you could choose your target audience so is this for anyone to understand is it for beginners or is it for subject matter experts here so if I was writing about AI for experts it's going to write in a whole different tone than if I was writing for anybody and here let me do a little history see what it comes up with okay so I finished the four sections so let me show you some of these editing option one option is it's going to always choose an image here and you could go ahead and just drag
it to resize it here so it looks like you actually pulled this from a YouTube video but I'm going to go ahead and change it and it's going to pull up bunch of different images here that you could choose so you could choose any of them and resize them like this but what's really cool is you could go ahead and generate images from this page right here and it's going to use some of these references to create it so I'm going to choose a photographic style this way I know it doesn't have any any kind
of copyright issues or anything although I think these are just from unsplash which is royaltyfree but if you want an AI generated image you could also do that it looks like this time it's using Dolly 3 because I have the pro version the free version is not going to probably use Dolly 3 here so if you wanted to use this one you can in this case it didn't do a great job so I'll just use this unsplash one the first thing I could do is I could change the layout so if I just want a
small image instead of that big one or if I want no image at all I could go ahead and change it that way way and then if I go down a little bit later with each section I could add media if I just click here it automatically finds something that works and it added it just like this again I could change it again I could upload my own even I could search here I could go ahead and generate any different styles that are available you could go ahead and click this also to get a custom
prompt here if you want to use a different thirdparty tool and with each section too you could see sometimes it creates this kind of layout which looks really nice you have the edit option right here so you could actually change how it looks so if I want just text or in this case let's get a table and let's make it more detailed so five good Emperors let's see if it's going to create a table again I'm not giving it any prompt I I'm just clicking on the options it has and everything else previous to this
is staying there I'm just changing each section one at a time look at this it kept the image the formatting looks great is creating a table for us of the five good emperors fantastic and if you don't like a section under the more tab you could delete a section you could move up a section again if you want to add a section this is the part that you have all these options as before so if you want image it's going to give you some again some options over here so I'll choose this one and here
we got ourselves a new section and you could also go in between sections here and insert a section and then you could give it a prompt here to fill in between two sections if you feel like information is missing and it's going to know the context from before and after so it's going to give you some relevant suggestions that you could just press right here and it's going to use that as the prompt again make sure you choose anything if you want the detailed option it's going to give you a longer piece than the concise
option and let's say I'm done with this I'm going to go ahead and publish it so right over here you could press publish it's going to create a link that's already copied or you could copy the link from here and if I open it in a new window this is what it looks like right but it doesn't have to be my accounts let me actually show you this link in a in Cognito window and here it is in incognito mode and look at this fantastic formatting right here it's going to show you when it was
last published it's going to show you how many views it has it has two me creating it someone watching it it's going to put your account's name right here and what's fantastic about this is anybody could ask it a follow-up question right down here so they could interact with it and they could start their own thread from here and this is going to use the regular perplexity search and I as you could see I asked for a one- sentence recap of that very specific page so you could share all your information with someone totally edit
it and then they could take it from there and have an interaction with it here inside of perplexity they're going to get related searches and they have the follow-up box where they could ask any questions another thing that's really useful is you could select a portion so let's say I want to learn more about this you could select that and ask a followup and it's going to actually use just that portion or whatever you selected to create this followup which is going to use the search inside of the regular perplexity that we've had before and
pull up everything specific to that and then I could just go back let's say I was done with the search my library is still going to have that paper over here that we created or page so then I could select this portion of it maybe ask a followup and so on and here's the one they published that actually pulled in a lot more sources so you could see the sources from where he getting the information are going to show up over here and in the bottom of each section it looks like it's giv a nice
sources recap here and you could go ahead and copy a link to individual sections too you don't have to actually link the whole article over here and I mean this is just kind of fantastic how fast this kind of research would take days right and it just did it in minutes I also have a complete perplexity walkthrough for complete beginners so that's going to show you all the other things that perplexity also offers like Collections and threads so I'll link that here as well thanks so much for watching I'll see you next next time
