Users must create a verified account using a phone number and email address to access Poe.

Once verified, users can choose from three AI chatbots: Sage, Claude, Dragonfly, and ChatGPT.

Initially, Poe was designed as an independent platform from Quora, but now users can access it through the platform.

The AI bots available on Quora are still in beta version, and we can expect them to be available for everyone soon.

What is the difference between Sage, Claude, Dragonfly, and ChatGPT?

Sage, ChatGPT, and Dragonfly bots are clever answer-generating bots.

When you seek answers on Quora, these bots kick into action, fueled by the expertise of third-party providers who harness the power of Large Language Models (LLMs).

LLMs are machine learning systems trained on enormous volumes of text data, allowing them to understand and produce text responses.

On the other hand, Claude looks for the most suitable response for a given input by browsing a database of pre-written responses.

Poe Limitations

Although these bots have proven to be efficient in answering questions, they have limitations. These bots, including ChatGPT, can often give incorrect statements, so their answers should be taken with a grain of salt.

Stack Overflow, for example, has banned users who use chatbots like ChatGPT to answer questions due to the issue we mentioned before.
