Wipeout trash talker devon6/11/2023 You can use DEVONagent Pro to run regular searches when you are not at the computer, and it will present the results, if any, when it has finished." You use a specialized web browser with research-centric additions, e.g., the sidebar. You can archive interesting searches and review or expand those searches on another day. You get the results in a much more natural presentation in the Digest. You can search more specifically using DEVONagent Pro’s advanced operators and search sets. ![]() You don’t have to do all the tedious, repetitive tasks involved in a search DEVONagent Pro does them for you, freeing you to spend more time on meaningful, more important tasks. Reasons for using DEVONagent Pro include: ![]() This feature actually saves time because you do not have to do all this manually. DEVONagent Pro searches also return fewer results since DEVONagent Pro filters broken links, advertisements, and outdated pages. Searches with DEVONagent Pro take longer than quick searches on a Web search engine because DEVONagent Pro downloads each resulting page instead of only presenting you with a link to it. DEVONagent Pro is a very capable Internet research assistant that handles tedious research tasks such as weeding out bad search results, spotting linked documents, and finding information on a webpage. It is a question of the right tool for the job in hand and now I use Safari for general web browsing and DAP for what it is intended for.īluefrog quoted the Help page and it is worth reading the whole of that page “Why use DEVONagent Pro?” so I give it here:Ī common misconception is that DEVONagent Pro is a simple front-end to Google or Bing. When I first bought DAP I tried unsuccessfully to replace Safari with it but soon realised that DAP is not a Safari replacement but it is an excellent and “very capable Internet research assistant that handles tedious research tasks such as weeding out bad search results, spotting linked documents, and finding information on a webpage.” For me the last two in this list are exactly the things that DAP do best and other web browsers fail miserably to do. This is an interesting a worthwhile discussion as I suspect, like the OP and indeed myself when I first started to use DAP, many folk think that the app is simply another browser and one that claims to be better than the rest, neither of these statements are In my opinion true. There may be misunderstandings or misusage. So DAP becomes useless when used to search for Chinese or Japanese, or some other asian languages, since DAP cannot judge the relevance of two sentences in Chinese. In DAP, it seems, words are sent to AI to perform relevance calculations. English is (naturally) split by words while Chinese and Japanese does not. There are many types of languages in the world. In the website of DEVON technologies it said one of the features of DEVONtechnology is, it’s language-independent. The second thing I’m not satisfied with DAP is the language. I may be expecting too much about DAP, after all it’s built by a small company and we cannot expect it to fight with Google. ![]() I say “Hey DEVONagent, why not leave the result as it is ?!”. Sometimes I think Google returns the best page ranking result and DEVONagent ruins them all. ![]() So how can a ~25MB app to give better performance than it? In the 25MB app it won’t be anything like semantic database or large corpus so any knowledges is extracted from the search result, it’s much a small corpus for machine learning. Now Google holds millions of TBs of data and they’ve managed to cast the newest AI technologies (big data algorithms, deep learning algorithms) to rank their pages. I don’t quite know about how it is implemented but I hold the same feeling with this one: In this case I highly doubt about the ability if DAP’s AI. Strange that they both have the highest ranking scores of relevance.Ībout each time I used DAP for searching, I got the results just like this case, that is, not relevance to what I want. At the first place it is a government website and the second one is somehow a traveling website. Clear to see that Google (.com) knows exactly what I want so it returns the index of zengobi.
