Today, we’re talking about how AI is changing the way we use the web. If you’re like me, you’re probably already using apps like ChatGPT to search for things, but lately I’ve become very interested in the future of the web browser itself. That brings me to my guest today: Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas, who is betting that the browser is where more useful AI will get built. His company just released Comet, an AI web browser for Mac and Windows that’s still in an invite-only beta. I’ve been using it, and it’s very interesting. Aravind isn’t alone here: OpenAI is working on its own web browser, and then there are other AI native web browsers out there like Dia. Google, meanwhile, may be forced to spin off Chrome if the US Department of Justice prevails in its big antitrust case. If that happens, it could provide an opening for startups like Perplexity to win market share and fundamentally change how people interact with the web.
