Course Description

"Short, concise, and to the point." - Martin


Are you new to Perplexity AI, or ChatBots in general? Have you found that many of the training resources out there use complex technical jargon that make it difficult to understand the basic concepts? If you need to get a basic understanding of Perplexity AI quickly and clearly, this is the course for you.

This course answers the questions:

  • What is Perplexity AI, and why is it important?

  • How can I get started with Perplexity AI?

  • What are the differences between Perplexity AI and ChatGPT or Google?

  • What data privacy considerations should I be aware of?

  • How can I query and summarize the following:

    • Large text files and PDFs

    • Images

    • Videos

  • How can I use Perplexity to:

    • Solve complex problems (Match, coding, etc)

    • Generate SEO (Search Engine Optimization) content

    • Create written content like blog articles, emails, stories, and more

I've taught hundreds of thousands of students, helping them gain valuable tech skills, and I believe anyone interested in AI Chatbots and Perplexity AI will find immense value in this course. With concise, engaging lectures mostly around 5-15 minutes each, this course will give you hands-on experience that you can apply right away.

This is a very good basic introduction course for Perplexity. Some of the material of the course is dated as Perplexity changed a lot of features and their UI. I enjoyed this course.

By Dr Hermie le Roux on 8/24/2026

Too basic for a researcher

By Irma Lopez on 4/2/2026

This was great. It provided me with enough detail and relevant examples to understand what is possible with Perplexity, without going overly in detail for each topic. Exactly what I needed.

By Patrick McHugh on 1/28/2026

A very nice broad overview of the Perplexity eco-system. Seems a little dated as prompts look different, but this is almost expected. Maybe a brief post about the new items and features in the project!? Thank You!

By Kennet Andersen on 12/23/2025

A good match. Maybe needs some rework. Chapters 18 and 20 seem to be the same. And some places still refer to "collections" even though another place it is said that these are replaced by "spaces"

By Alberto Rocha on 10/25/2025

There is so much key information to learn about Perplexity, but the Instructor provides so much clarity that I believe I will get tremendous value in the usage of Perplexity! Great Job!!

By Sean Murphy on 10/6/2025

It was a coarse that professionals would be able to use straight away. For personal use it was helpful because I got to see real examples and I was able to adjust inputs for everyday uses.

By Daria Nowak on 10/3/2025

It helped me to learn more about perplexity pro. I was not sure how to use it successfully, now I understand about it better. Good for creating some solid basic understanding and sufficient to play with it for more success.

By Saravanan Palaniappan on 7/26/2025

The course provides a solid introduction to Perplexity AI and does a good job of simplifying the basics. The instructor's clarity and concise lessons make the course beginner-friendly and easy to follow. However, I felt the course could benefit from more full-length examples and deeper real-world applications, especially for those looking to go beyond the basics. It is a moderate course with a promising growth potential.
