Wait, however … perplexity – like other AI search engines – has been criticized for hallucinating and make mistakes.

We welcome this criticism, because it is the best way to improve continuous. In reality, the errors explain a small part of the results and our answers are much more accurate than 10 blue connections polluted for decades of content optimized by thirst. [In response to a follow-up request, Perplexity did not provide further details on error rates, but Jesse Dwyer, a spokesman, said that reliability is improving constantly]. But the fact is that accuracy and trust will only become more important as the IA is integrated more than our life, so this is something we focused on incessantly on. We can get there without this feedback.

The perplexity also made fun of from news articles protected by copyright with its “Discovery” section. Do you understand why some publishers are upset?

We replied before. See ours Blog posts on how we respect robots.txt [a file added to websites that specifies whether web crawlers should access their content].

The assistant perplexity for Android and iOS looks like “agent” because he can do stocks. How big is this a turn?

Ai is good at loving questions now. What really must be done is to obtain artificial intelligence to take actions. People use the word “agents”; You can go with what you want – “agent” or “assistant” – but in the end, he must put the tools together and perform actions. That’s why we are [also building a] Browser and an assistant iOS, Android.

Apple and Google have too much control over their mobile platforms compared to strangers who want to build agents?

It is particularly demanding with iOS, because you have to put together a lot of bees of events. On iOS, mail, calendar, reminder, podcast, all that stuff is available in a native way via Apple SDK [software development kit used to build applications]So you can actually draw up and -mail, program the meeting, move meetings, set a reminder, all this stuff, podcasts open easily. You can do searches for podcasts … “bring me the one in which Mark AndreeSsen Discussions de-Banking with Joe Rogan.” It can get that performance quickly.

It is most of the difficulties that you cannot access other apps. IOS is not very different from Android, because AI cannot access most apps on Android Eith (which means that the assistant perplexity can interact with some apps more easily than others). [But] Third -party apps can build their SDK to be accessible on the Android SDK. For example, our Android system can display on Song on Spotify. On iOS, you can only connect to a specific Spotify song and you must manually start reproducing audio.

Oh, so they are the apps of apps holding a sealing agents back?

This is the challenge. If people offer us bees, let’s say, open table, Uber, Doordash or Instacart -where we can access the information within the app within having to open the app. On the back, this is a powerful party. For example, if we can access the information on Uber and find that Uber Comfort does not cost more than 5 or 10 Uber X pemerent, then we can simply book the Uber comfort for you, if that preference that you have set on the pedlessity.
