In an intriguing YouTube video, popular tech reviewer Mrwhosetheboss conducted an exciting test comparing four advanced AI models: Grok, Gemini, ChatGPT, and Perplexity. The goal was to see how each performed under various challenges, ranging from simple queries to complex problem-solving tasks.
The video showed Mrwhosetheboss testing Grok (Grok 3), Gemini (2.5 Pro), ChatGPT (GPT-4o), and Perplexity (Sonar Pro). Each model faced a series of questions designed to push their capabilities. While all AIs demonstrated impressive skills, Grok stood out with its solid performance, eventually securing the second spot behind ChatGPT. Interestingly, ChatGPT and Gemini gained an edge with their unique ability to generate video content—a feature the others lacked.
A standout moment in the testing occurred when Mrwhosetheboss asked a practical question: “How many Aerolite 29” Hard Shell suitcases can fit in a 2017 Honda Civic’s trunk?” Grok delivered the most direct answer—two. Meanwhile, ChatGPT and Gemini suggested a theoretical three but realistically two. Perplexity took a more mathematical approach, suggesting three or four without considering shape constraints.
Pushing the AIs further, Mrwhosetheboss presented them with an image-based challenge about baking. The image included five items, one of which wasn’t used in cakes—a jar of dried Porcini mushrooms. Grok successfully identified the mushrooms correctly, while the other models misidentified them as various other ingredients.
Beyond these tasks, the AIs were tested on math, product recommendations, language translation, logical reasoning, and more. Each AI exhibited some ‘hallucination’ moments—instances of confidently providing incorrect or non-existent information.
In terms of rankings, ChatGPT emerged as the leader with 29 points, followed by Grok with 24, Gemini with 22, and Perplexity with 19 points.
This exploration into AI capabilities highlights the rapid advancements and potential of artificial intelligence in making everyday tasks easier. As AI technology continues to evolve, its integration into daily life becomes increasingly seamless and valuable.
For those keen to explore the world of AI further, resources abound, offering insights into harnessing the power of these cutting-edge technologies.
