How many websites are there in the world?

 As of my knowledge cut-off, it's hard to provide an exact number of websites that exist on the internet, as new websites are constantly being created and old ones are being taken down. However, estimates put the number of websites in the world at well over 1 billion. According to the website Internet Live Stats, which tracks the number of websites in real-time, as of January 2021, the number of websites exceeded 1.74 billion.

It's important to note that this number also includes inactive or abandoned websites, parked domains and websites that are not indexed by search engines. As technology and access to the internet has become more widespread, it has become increasingly easy for people to create their own websites, resulting in a large number of new sites being added to the internet on a regular basis. Also the number of websites can change depending on the year, but the trend is growing, for sure.

Step-by-Step Tutorial to Create a 'Gem' with Google Gemini

 Creating a "Gem" under Google Gemini is a straightforward process that allows you to build a custom AI expert tailored to your specific needs. Here's a detailed, step-by-step tutorial on how to do it. A "Gem" is essentially a set of instructions that tells Gemini what role to play, what task to perform, and how to format its responses. Think of it as creating your own specialized version of Gemini. Step 1: Access the Gem Creation Interface Go to the Gemini web app at gemini.google.com . On the left-hand side, look for and click on Explore Gems . Click the New Gem button. Step 2: Name Your Gem The first thing you'll be prompted to do is give your new Gem a name. Choose a name that clearly reflects the Gem's purpose. For example, if you're building a Gem to help you write blog posts, you might name it "Blog Post Writer" or "Content Creator." Step 3: Write the Instructions This is the most crucial part of creating your Gem. The ins...

How DeepSeek?

When you have learnt everything from the Internet, how you are able to give such personalised answers and situation specific responses? These are not published anywhere in written format right? Great question! Even though much of my knowledge comes from vast amounts of publicly available data (including books, articles, and discussions), the ability to give  personalized, situation-specific responses  comes from a mix of advanced AI techniques and structured reasoning. Here’s how it works: 1. Understanding Context, Not Just Copying I don’t just "recall" pre-written answers—I analyze patterns from millions of conversations to  identify key themes  (e.g., jealousy in friendships, career growth dilemmas). When you ask a question, I break it down into  underlying concerns  (e.g.,  "How do I protect my peace?"  or  "Is my career path normal?" ) and tailor advice accordingly. 2. Logical Frameworks, Not Memorization Instead of repeating exact answer...

Counter to Palki Sharma's "The AI Bubble: Why 95% of GenAI Projects Are Failing | Vantage with Palki Sharma | N18G"

Palki's latest Youtube Clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zsh6VgcYCdI I asked Perplexity to counter this: Here are 10 counterpoints to the arguments presented in the video “The AI Bubble: Why 95% of GenAI Projects Are Failing” by Palki Sharma on Firstpost. Each point challenges the narrative that generative AI (GenAI) is mostly failing or that we are heading toward an “AI bubble” collapse: Widespread Productivity Gains While 95% of pilots may not directly deliver measurable revenue in the short term, GenAI is already driving widespread productivity gains—especially in code generation, content creation, document search, and customer support. Companies using AI are streamlining workflows, reducing error rates, and accelerating turnaround times in daily operations. Adoption Curve Mirrors Past Technologies Historically, any transformative technology (e.g., electricity, the internet) saw early, unfocused experimentation and a high failure rate. The percentage of short-term “f...
