Perplexity AI is taking on the generative AI giants and it looks like their efforts are paying off. Founded in August 2022, Perplexity's latest round of funding valued the challenger at $520M, but the Wall Street Journal notes that they're now aiming for unicorn status (aka a $1B+ valuation). Part chatbot, part search engine - Perplexity combines search results with a ChatGPT-like interface, allowing them to provide answers alongside the most up-to-date sources - directly addressing a very common concern. It's probably time to give it a try if you haven't yet.

The world recently lost a legend few outside of the anime and manga world are likely familiar with - Akira Toriyama. Though most widely known as the creator of the Dragon Ball series and its accompanying spin-offs, Toriyama also contributed to cult classic video games Dragon Quest and Chrono Trigger as a character designer. Over his decades long career, Toriyama influenced millions to pursue their dreams as animators and intrigued the world with stories about friendship, perseverance and the battle between good and evil.

The “Great North American Eclipse” will move across the United States on April 8th and the people are pumped. NASA highlights that the pathway will cover a large portion of the nation, starting in Texas and working its way northeast to Maine throughout the afternoon. While it's widely known that looking directly at the sun can cause permanent eye damage, 2017's eclipse proved that a gentle reminder is certainly warranted. Luckily, the American Astronomical Association has you covered - here is their list of safe solar viewers for anyone who can't help but look up.
