My favorite AI LLM and Tools

I frequently use the following AI tools and sites. I wanted to compile a list of them for simple and quick access for myself (and maybe you too). Next to each listing I also included what I find unique and/or useful benefits these offer.

Most of these have a free tier (and paid as well).

LLM/Chatbots

• ChatGPT — the leading multi-modal (import, pictures, files, or use audio) chat bot
• The paid plan lets you create your own bots and offers additional functionality
• Google Gemini — multi-modal (import pictures, files, or use audio)
• Also has “plug-ins” that connect to other google products
• Claude — multi-modal (import pictures or files)
• Poe — grants you access to many different assistants (some are multi-modal). You can also make and monetize your own bot, like FinanceTipsBot (my bot)
• Perplexity — multi-modal (import pdfs). this operates in a similar regard to a search engine
• Le Chat By Mistral — late comer to the game but it integrates web-searching, image creation, and allows for file uploads
• Thetawise — AI math tutor (LLM Based), allows picture, audio, and sketches to be uploaded too
