Perplexity AI Now Back Up on WhatsApp Following Temporary Take Down; Fact-Check Feature Also Now Available

Following the recent take down, Perplexity AI is now back up and running on WhatsApp again. The brand has also made the fact-check feature too available via Perplexity AI on WhatsApp.

Here’s more about it.

Perplexity AI is Now Again Live on WhatsApp

At the beginning of this week, Perplexity introduced its AI chatbot on WhatsApp, allowing users to directly access it without having to install a separate app and without needing to go through the sign-up procedure. Features which include answers, sources, and image generation were also introduced to users with its availability on WhatsApp, and many more features were promised and were said to arrive soon.

Voice mode, memes, videos, fact-checks, assistant, and group chats functionalities are the promised features that will be made available to users, among which the fact-check capability has already been added to Perplexity on WhatsApp. With the help of the fact-check capability, users can forward a WhatsApp message to Perplexity and verify its genuineness. This will thus enable users to spot misleading and fake messages received through others or from group chats.

Following the roll-out of the fact-check feature, Perplexity’s WhatsApp bot saw an unprecedented demand, and thereby it was taken down temporarily. A few hours after this, the brand has made it live again, and users can now access and start using Perplexity AI on WhatsApp.
