High Hopes

"In the digital cafeteria where AI chatbots mingle,
Perplexity AI is the scrawny new kid ready to
stand up to ChatGPT, which has so far run roughshod
over the AI landscape. With impressive lineage, a wide
array of features, and a dedicated mobile app, this
newcomer hopes to make the competition eat its dust."

Jason Nelson at decrypt.co, April 12, 2023

Not unlike, in the literary cafeteria, Pullman vs. Tolkien?
ChatGPT seems to have the advantage for lovers of
fiction and fantasy, Perplexity AI for lovers of truth.

“Somehow, a message had been lost on me. Groups act .
The elements of a group do not have to just sit there,
abstract and implacable; they can do  things, they can
‘produce changes.’ In particular, groups arise
naturally as the symmetries of a set with structure.”

— Thomas W. Tucker, review of Lyndon’s Groups and Geometry
in The American Mathematical Monthly , Vol. 94, No. 4
(April 1987), pp. 392-394.

From a post of January 8, 2021

“Lord Arglay had a suspicion that the Stone would be
purely logical.  Yes, he thought, but what, in that sense,
were the rules of its pure logic?”

Many Dimensions  (1931), by Charles Williams
