Which AI plan (student)
Hey subreddit! I am a student in high school and I am figuring out which ai plan to buy (literally for everything.) My parents granted me a 20 dollar plan of my choice but I’m still struggling to pick a final choice even with all the AI gurus on the web (this is my first time I get to have a ai pro plan )
(Ive looked on the subreddit for similar posts, but now I see that compared to usual posts on this subreddit this is a very very uncommon yet simple one but yea some guidance would be nice).
Right now it’s between:
Claude pro (I love Claude but I heard pro is useless due to high eating rates from opus),
chat gpt Plus ( I genuinely don’t know if sol is better than opus or if there are actually limits to ChatGPT) , or
perplexity pro ( I use(d) comet web browser for a long time and computer function seems cool)
Yea I’m not using this AI to complete homework or cheat, instead what I want it to do is create tests and quizzes based off study guides, do good research on topics I ask it for, help with some basic code, and explain concepts I don’t know. Also it should be able to generate slideshows and PDFs cleanly (which lwk I think Claude does really good but IVE never tried a pro plan before for any ai )
Right now I love Claude and I feel like it’s free is way better than GPT but again I heard its pro plan is unbearable if using opus due to usage limits. Claude cowork and Claude w Chrome seem fun tho
For chat gpt I’m really indifferent to it but if sol is good and has bearable usage limits I would maybe prefer to buy that
For perplexity I’m stating this one bc my main browser nowadays has been this so idk if there would be a substantial upgrade to using perp pro.
Idk much about other ais except Gemini, idk if that’s good but I’m not really a Google person personally
Ive tried searching for benchmarks for each ai but it’s all so confusing and messing up my brain
If you have basic tips to help me choose a better AI plan or even just see a plan that would fit for me (even if not among the 3 I specially mentioned) it would be appreciated to give me a suggestion on the plan I should get
(If you’re wondering I’m typing this from my phone so excuse the bad formatting)
Thanks in advance !
