- I recommend Google NotebookLM and Perplexity AI as AI services that are being used effectively recently.
- NotebookLM is a service provided by Google that allows you to search for information by entering Drive, PDF, text files, and webpage links.
- Perplexity AI is a service that searches for relevant data on the internet and assembles the results. It has a clean UI, and while it may be somewhat lacking for deep questions, it is useful for data search.
Recently (though it's been a while) popular and recommendable AI services.
Actually, I knew about them a while ago, and I've compiled the services that I've been using occasionally when needed.
First, excluding ChatGPT and Gemini (formerly Bard) which everyone knows, let's just focus on the rest.
It's worth reading through them once and trying them out when you need them. You can significantly improve your work efficiency.
1. NotebookLM (Google Service)
NotebookLM
An AI service provided by Google. The name is Notebook LM, where LM probably stands for Language Model. It's a typical Google name.
The basic service it provides is that you can input Google Drive, PDF, text files, and "web page links," and it can search for information within them.
Upload screen
In other words, when you have a "massive" document from which you want to search for information, you can upload a PDF or a web link, and search for information within it. For example, you can upload development documents, price lists, or contract documents for transactions, and ask for the price of a product or check some information. The actual usage is easy for anyone to understand once they access it. Highly recommended! (Especially for people who need to read a lot of documents)
The upload limit is up to 500,000 words per document, and you can register up to 50 documents. It's not truly unlimited, but this is enough to be convenient for managing the necessary data.
2. perplexity AI
This service got into some trouble for unauthorized crawling. When you search for something, it searches the internet for relevant information and assembles the results. It's similar to Coher's (https://cohere.com/ ) service, but the UI is cleaner.
As shown in the screenshot, it searches, retrieves a few pages, and uses the data on those pages to generate an answer. It's pretty good when you're looking for information, but it struggles with really deep questions.
Anyway, it's a useful service. (Personally, I believe that the future of search is in this form. But I'm not saying that's the case with this particular company. )
Of course, as I mentioned earlier, there are also Claude 3.5 Sonnet, GPT, and Gemini, which recently underwent major updates. But these are base models rather than services, so I'll talk about them separately on another occasion.
