In an exciting development for AI technology, Perplexity, an American AI startup, has launched its chatbot directly on WhatsApp. The company's co-founder and CEO, Aravind Srinivas, announced this breakthrough on social media platform X, highlighting that users can now access the AI directly through WhatsApp.

For users in Hong Kong, this means easy access without needing a VPN. By simply adding a specific phone number (+1 (833) 436-3285) to their contacts, WhatsApp users can now interact with the AI chatbot. The bot offers impressive features like information searching, image generation, and the ability to create images in specific styles, such as the popular Ghibli animation aesthetic.

Perplexity has ambitious plans for expansion. In the coming weeks, they aim to introduce additional features including voice mode, emoji and short video generation, and fact-checking capabilities. The company is also exploring group chat functionality, though they are currently working through technical challenges and hoping to collaborate with Meta to resolve these issues. While some early users have reported minor technical glitches with message formatting, the company is actively working on addressing these concerns.
