This free AI supersite is like Gemini Deep Research on steroids
Everywhere you look these days, there it is—some manner of breathlessly hyped new “AI” service that’s, like, totally gonna change your life forever. (Like, totally. For realsies.) Or so they say. In reality, of course, most of this stuff is far more fallible, limited in utility, and inadvisable to use outside of super-specific scenarios than most tech companies (and self-declared “AI gurus”) would lead you to believe. But AI, in its current form, isn’t entirely useless. Far from it, in fact: This type of tech can be quite helpful in the right sort of scenario and, critically, if you think about it in the right way—not as an end-all instant answer machine but as a starting point for certain types of specific tasks or info-seeking. And as we wade our way through a year that’s absolutely overflowing with overwrought AI ballyhoo, I’ve got just the tool for you to sift through that sea and seek out some surprising shiny pearls amid all the overwhelming noise. Be the first to find all sorts of little-known tech treasures with my free Cool Tools newsletter from The Intelligence. One useful new discovery in your inbox every Wednesday! Deep research, done right So, you’ve probably heard all about ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and the likes, right? They’re all generative AI chatbots, which means they use a snazzy-sounding word prediction engine to analyze language patterns and answer your questions, among other more ambitious tasks.
