FAQ

Can Perplexity generate exercises with up-to-date numerical data?

Yes, this is one of the major advantages of Perplexity compared to other AI tools. Thanks to its real-time web search capability, Perplexity can incorporate recent statistics, current stock prices, up-to-date demographic data, or sports results into your exercises. Specify in your prompt that you want real and recent data, and Perplexity will cite its sources, allowing you to verify the accuracy of the information used.

How to adapt generated exercises to a specific school curriculum?

Explicitly mention the reference framework or curriculum in your prompt. For example, add 'according to the final year high school mathematics curriculum (French National Education, 2024)' or 'compliant with the BTS International Commerce framework'. Perplexity will search for official curriculum content to align the exercises. You can also list specific chapters or concepts to cover for an even more targeted result.

Are the answer keys generated by Perplexity reliable?

The answer keys are generally reliable, especially for factual subjects (sciences, history, geography). Perplexity sources its answers, which facilitates verification. However, it is recommended to always proofread the answer keys before distributing them to students, particularly for complex math exercises or topics requiring nuanced interpretation. To enhance reliability, ask Perplexity to detail each reasoning step in the answer key.
