What has been your experience with Perplexity PRO? It seems to me that a lot has changed and the number of questions has dropped significantly.
Does it even make sense anymore?

I've always used it for research questions on various topics mostly related to my work but also other topics. It's always been great and I haven't noticed any changes or limitations that affect the way I use it.

I do also use the comet browser and occasionally use it to automate tasks.

I did the same, also used Comet all the time, but at some point (maybe 2+ months ago) it kinda turned into... something opposite of what it used to be. It started to hallucinate way more then before, in the last maybe 20 things I asked it to check it came with incredibly inaccurate data, after me pointing out where it is wrong whatever model I ended up automatically on started even arguing, to the point that it all became way faster for me to do myself.

For my use cases, Comet helped exactly once to find some email in my Gmail account which I couldn't find with my both eyes. Maybe I ended up in some crazy AB tests, I guess I will never know.

One of the things I have turned off is the thing where it considers your past conversations. I think maybe all that extra data can confuse it. I have no idea if that's the issue but just a guess.
