So where will the answers come from for this app when the source sites fail from lack of ad dollars. No one is going to pay to advertise on a site where 80% of the hits are by bots. Also how many people are going to actually check the accuracy of the information, especially if the answer sits well with them?

Well depends. I already broke it twice. It DOES give some good answers, but on a very complex topics it falls flat on the face. It has even admitted it doesn't have enough data for my question. My take: This AI proggies are just "expert systems" from a few decades ago, just running on stronger hardware and fed more data. At the end this will be just tool, advanced, but still tools.

Tbh I prefer Krawl AI over Perplexity. It's more work-focused and I can get lot more things done using it because of the "tools" concept they introduced. Plus they are adding new tools to it almost every other week. It's not necessarily great for scientific research yet, but still more useful than Perplexity in other use cases right now I think
