If you have an account with Comcast Xfinity, then you also have a year-long subscription to the Perplexity Pro AI answer engine. Perplexity announced the special deal on . Perplexity Pro differs from the company’s free option by allowing unlimited quick answers from a choice of AI models, including GPT-4o, Claude-3 and Sonar Large. Engadget hasn’t reviewed the service, but if you’re already paying for Xfinity, free seems like a good price for you to make up your own mind on its value.
All you have to do to get your free year of Perplexity is to log into your and obtain a promo code. You’ll punch in your code on and you can start using the AI to explore life’s most puzzling mysteries like “Who was that guy who played that squirrely dude in Office Space?” (For the record, that was Stephen Root and his character was Milton).
A Perplexity Pro subscription normally costs $20 but if you take advantage of Comcast Xfinity’s perk, you’ll get a whole year for nothing. You still might want to take Perplexity’s answers with a big grain of salt. The media company and the online retail giant accused Perplexity of plagiarizing its content and website for the AI’s generated responses. So this isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement for Perplexity Pro but again, it’s free so you could do worse. .
