Can Perplexity AI Disrupt Search? Google Created A Terrible Internet, Says CEO Aravind Srinivas

Artificial intelligence (AI)-powered search startup Perplexity AI has more than a million users in India, co-founder Aravind Srinivas told Moneycontrol, reflecting the growing popularity of the service that has become the talk of the town in Silicon Valley in recent weeks. Founded in August 2022 by Srinivas, Denis Yarats, Johnny Ho, and Andy Konwinski, Perplexity AI launched its answer engine in December 2022. Unlike traditional search engines, Perplexity AI offers a chatbot-like interface that allows users to ask any question and receive concise answers, backed up by a curated set of sources that are mentioned as citations.

Excellent interview! Aravind Srinivas seems like a humble guy despite his achievements and his apparent initial success. He knows he’s going against one of the largest and most powerful companies on earth and other challengers have not fared very well against them in the past. I wish him all the best as an Indian American and can say 1000’s of us are rooting for him.
I have to also acknowledge the great skills of the interviewer. She was not overly subservient or aggressive yet asked the relevant and difficult questions. Good job 👏

Commendable job by interviewing lady. Most of the technology people I know can’t handle these kinds of conversations so well. Way to go lady !!

Also Good interview overall. Good set of questions.

The big difference is CITATION of the websites regarding the information which PERPLEXITY is generating as response. This keeps them at bay from any possible ethical issues. This is strength of perplexity. It is its USP. I have used it for my scientific research on Generative AI

from 10:00 to 12:00 the anchor seemed so unprofessional. She should've researched better instead of just smirking all over the interview.

Well, if Google created a terrible internet, maybe Perplexity AI's search results will lead us to a parallel universe of cat memes and endless dad jokes!

10:20 10:50 11:40 - the anchor couldve managed the interview better, than make a comedy of it
