TIPS & TRICKS

INTRODUCTION

Research with AI Models

Research is a critical element of business because it reveals industry trends, customer preferences, competitor strategies, and more. In today's competitive business landscape, companies must stay current and adapt. To achieve this, utilizing AI tools has become essential in research activities. However, while AI tools simplify the process, they do not completely solve all business problems. Knowing which tools to use effectively further enhances the research output. In the next part, we will discover popular AI tools for research.

GUIDE

Research with AI Models

First, we will review the recently popular models, such as ChatGPT and Claude. Let’s start with an evaluation of Claude. It does not have internet access, but it can evaluate and report on topics without accessing the internet. Unlike Claude, ChatGPT-4 does have internet access and can browse the web for information. However, this does not guarantee that you will get the best output from ChatGPT-4. The issues with this model include links that are sometimes not clickable and occasionally broken. When you would like to get specific information about any topic, it can not be useful sometimes. So, what should we use? Let's continue below.

So, What Should We Use?

Since Claude has an internet, and ChatGPT-4o is available on the web even though it can still only give us broken, non-clickable links, we really need models with search engine features that are also combined with artificial intelligence functionality. Here, Perplexity AI is a reasonable option. The use of Perplexity AI enables a conversational search engine powered by an AI chatbot to answer any query using natural language predictive text or request information about something and get responses generated based on web-sourced data, useful for citing links within your own written text as references.It understands your questions better than normal search engines. You can ask it questions, and it will look at different places like academic databases, news, YouTube, and Reddit to give you correct and current answers.

So, let's try the simple research prompt below:

How Can AI Impact the Footwear Industry in the Future?

Here are the prompt outputs:

The output of Perplexity functions similarly to a search engine, but it is enhanced with artificial intelligence capabilities. It not only provides answers but also offers a detailed explanation of those answers, including source links and proper citations. It can be useful for the users who would like to research something. Additionally, Perplexity AI has a quick search feature in the free mode, but in the paid version it has also unlimited quick searches with additionally 600 Pro searches per day. Select your preferred AI model. Choose from GPT-4o, Claude-3, Sonar Large (LLama 3), and more features like this.
