@mycharmspace Awesome work, congrats!

Crazy

[Chaofan Shou @shoucccc]

I bought a Fable dataset from one of the top Chinese LLM routers yesterday.

With just 6TB data, I can take over 7 Chinese/CIS gov entities & 19 top Chinese firms like Xiaomi, Huawei, NIO, Minimax using SSH keys, VPN configs, Aliyun keys, GitLab tokens sent to the router.

Superintelligence will mean the end of social mobility. Instead of your being able to rise based on your talent and labor, those with the most capital will simply outcompete you by buying more compute. It will mark the end of any sort of meritocracy, and the dawn of a new feudalism.

Brain is our self-improving memory system for Perplexity Computer. It compiles sessions, files, and sources into a structured knowledge wiki.

New evals build on our initial results, improving correctness by 9.3 points, currentness by 8.0, and recall by 8.9 with 15% fewer tokens.

@Phoenixyin13 这个prompt模版不错， 感谢分享。我有些类似的prompt但是过于简单， 比如claim自己的IQ 低于50

Perplexity Computer’s goal is to provide the maximum intelligence for minimum cost with multi model orchestration. We’ve tested GPT 5.6 Terra extensively and found it to be a pretty good model: capable and cost-effective at the same time. We’re making it the default for all subagents inside Perplexity Computer harness. And are also offering it as an orchestrator model for all Computer users. Have fun!

We just raised $5.7M for @PolarBrowser, the AI browser that beats Anthropic and OpenAI on every major web agent benchmark.

- 4,500,000+ actions taken for users, automating sales, recruiting, and ops
- One company cancelled Clay and saves 25+ hrs/wk per person
- Team is from MIT, YC, Prod, Citadel, Jane Street, Perplexity, Modal, and Apple

100 hours of work. From 30 seconds of typing.

Introducing Projects on Perplexity Computer. With the launch of Projects, we're turning Computer into a multiplayer agentic operating system for work with persistent memory, files, and sessions scoped across hubs and users. Available to all users!

[Shu Zhang @ShuZhangForAI]

Congrats @jiang_kev ! Excited about the new chapter you and team has started. Gave it a try, very impressive!

@dingyi 公司内核没变 只是focus的area有变化，去试试computer！

@ChrisUniverse @perplexity_ai Hi - we are looking into it - thank you for your patience ♥️

[Aravind Srinivas @AravSrinivas]

Perplexity started as a small business tool for ourselves. We had 4 people and no revenue with AI at our fingertips.

The pivot to Computer is actually a full circle. Founders are using it to grow companies that matter to the economy and their communities. 

It’s rewarding to see it now powering small businesses and startups in big ways.

Perplexity is still a startup. We just 5X’ed revenue from $100M to $500M with only 34% growth in team size. 2x revenue growth in 2026 with same small team. And we’re just warming up.

Everyone here works at a small business, and everything we build is for people who build.

Different products, same taste.

[Miles Deutscher @milesdeutscher]

Perplexity is underrated af.

I use it daily for things other AI platforms simply can't do.

Here's everything I'm currently using inside the Perplexity tool suite:

• Perplexity Computer (OpenClaw for browser)
• Finance mode - politician tracking, finance data/research/modeling
• Council - deploy agent swarms
• Deep research - daily deep research/tables
• Analyse - for markets/competitor analysis
• Spaces - projects except you can share/collab with others (I share these with my team)
• Discover feed - curated AI news feed
• Connectors - for connecting my daily tools (Gmail, Drive)
• Assistant - browser control & light calendar management

So much value for $200/month.

[Shu Zhang @ShuZhangForAI]

@theoharvey Agreed, Memory team is doing amazing job, thanks! Let us know use cases working or not working for you - always room to improve!

@turingou 感谢支���！

Infinite extensibility

[Computer @AskPerplexity]

You can now run three frontier models at once and select your orchestrator model directly inside Perplexity Computer.

Model Council automatically runs GPT-5.4, Claude Opus 4.6 and Gemini 3.1 Pro simultaneously.

Three frontier models. One workflow. Best answer wins.
