Did you really provide statistics from perplexity.ai? An LLM?

I did. Perplexity updates daily. Better than "googling" these days. At least I attributed it. Don't like the stats, find better ones, or contradicting ones.

I am not against the statistics, it's well known that the Android ecosystem has more malware than iOS. I was more faschinated by you using LLM as source. I hope I didn't sound condescending, I was asking out of curiosity.

The way you attributed it wasn't properly done though, it's like me saying "According to Google, Android has X times more malware...".

Is there a "proper way" to attribute information on the internet? And, in a comment forum? I clearly stated the source as perplextity.ai.

In fact, perplexity includes actual sources (via links). I couuld have posted the 8 sources that perplexity.ai cited.. I did not want to take the time.

Perplexity does have a sharelink, so, if you are really curious, here is the search and results

The link you provided was way better way of attributing, thanks!

I might give perplexity a try, looks really useful!
