As Canada grapples with the post-Justin Trudeau resignation uncertainties in the future political landscape of the nation, it is indeed hard times for all of them. But to help in this turmoil time, an AI-driven search platform, Perplexity AI, has granted a free month of its premium service to the Canadian users-a claimant guaranteeing “accurate answers” to pressing queries.
It has now been announced by Aravind Srinivas, the chief executive of Perplexity AI, on X: “With Justin Trudeau’s resignation, Canadians surely have many questions about what will and should happen next in the country. To help them get accurate answers, we’re giving a free month of Perplexity Pro to all Canadian users.” To further illustrate the power of his platform, he attached a screenshot of the Perplexity Pro interface.
The reactions have been coming in thick and fast on social media, with many labeling it a brilliant publicity stunt given the political crisis at hand. Trudeau said on Monday he would resign both as head of government and as leader of the ruling Liberal Party, once a successor is elected. That ends a nine-year Trudeau leadership, as pressure inside the party has grown for a change.
This comes at the worst time for the Liberal Party, bereft of a permanent leader into what looks like a crucial period. The opinion polls indicate a prospect of an unprecedented defeat to Conservatives in the elections that could be held later this year, probably late October.
