What's the difference between using Kagi and Perplexity? On X everyone talks about Perplexity, on HN, about Kagi. Do they both search -> put results in an LLM as input text?
Kagi is a regular search engine, like Google. They started to bundle some optional AI features with the subscription, but I personally never use them.
Perplexity is yet another AI startup trying to find a way to monetize LLMs. Will they survive when the bubble pops? Idk. Do I trust them with my data? Fuck no. Just look at all the advertising they're investing in and ask yourself how they plan to make that money back.
