The speakers explore the concept of perplexity, an AI language model that functions as an answer engine by summarizing relevant information from web pages and providing concise answers to user queries. They discuss the limitations of AI search engines, such as inaccuracies and hallucinations in generated answers, and the reasons behind these mistakes. The chapter also compares AI-powered search engines like Perplexity to AI chatbots and highlights the potential of Gemini, an upcoming search engine, to compete with Google.
