Quora jumps on AI bandwagon with its ChatGPT-like service Poe
Social question-and-answer platform Quora has opened up public access to its new AI product “Poe”, which allows users to ask questions, receive instant answers and engage in back-and-forth dialogue with AI chatbots. Poe is similar to chatbot services offered by the makers of ChatGPT and more recently Google, which launched its conversational AI service called Bard.
Poe is short for Platform for Open Exploration and was first announced in December. Earlier, you needed an invite to try out Poe, but with the public launch, anyone can access the services using the Poe app. It is currently available on iOS, but the company said that it will add support for all major platforms in the next few months, along with more bots.
Poe functions similarly to a text messaging app, but for AI models users can communicate with the models separately. Its chat interface offers a variety of conversation topics and uses cases, such as “writing help”, “cooking,”, “problem-solving”, and “nature”. The AI on Poe is currently powered by models from OpenAI and Anthropic, the company said.
Today, we are opening up public access to a new AI product we have been building called Poe. Poe lets people ask questions, get instant answers, and have back-and-forth conversations with several AI-powered bots. (1/n) pic.twitter.com/G9LeO45sc8

“We foresee a large number of models available in the near future. Different models will be optimized for different tasks, they will represent different points of view, or they will have access to different knowledge,” said Quora in a blog post. “Quora has 400 million monthly unique visitors and we’ll be making it easy for all of them to use Poe and to see the best content created on Poe,” it added.
But much like ChatGPT’s chatbot, Sage and Claude — the general knowledge chatbots inside Poe — do not have knowledge of events after 2021. The inaccuracies in reporting facts, as well as the inability to solve math problems, have put a question mark on whether conversational AI technologies are ready for the public. Quora is trying to help answer that question by allowing AI developers with their chat models to make them more useful for the public.
The Q&A platform also shared that they are in the process of making an Application Programming Interface that will make it easy for any AI developer to plug their model into Poe.
