You’re basically just saying to locals what part of LA you’re from, but everybody knows LA is basically considered the whole county of LA (and yes, Calabasas is also part of LA County). I’ve lived in Calabasas and I always considered myself

I’m still on the free Perplexity plan but it has already replaced my Google search by a lot. I’m a huge fan. Haven’t tried Kagi yet though.

You can consider all of humanity's knowledge in the aggregate to be our biological version of AGI. Sure someone's invented LK-99 in South Korea, but that's now been added to our collective human knowledge within hours of shar

I want to play with the emotionally unhinged model that Bing had in their beta… unfortunately by the time I got access to it, it was neutered down. Does the raw uncensored LLama 2 model provide that?
