US President Donald Trump’s media company has launched a new AI-powered search engine in partnership with controversial artificial intelligence company Perplexity.

Trump Media (which is largely owned by the current US president) announced the new project as part of its social media platform Truth Social.

The AI feature called Truth Search, created by Perplexity, is linked to the web browser version of the platform.

Trump Media Chief Executive Officer Devon Nunes said that AI will make the social media platform a more important factor in the economy.
