I’m betting in <5 years there’s only 2 programming languages in use and it’s not Python.

Bought my first memecoin on @base today.

$BLUECHIP paired $NVDA stocks.

Interesting tech and keen to see how this plays out!

we launched Projects today which has been a huge effort.

computer is now multiplayer, and keeps separate shared memory context for individual workstreams.

we have been using projects internally for a while now and it’s a game changer for doing real work, at work.

[Perplexity @perplexity_ai]

Today we're launching Projects, an evolution of Spaces.

Projects are hubs for ongoing work in Computer. A single place to manage, create, and collaborate on tasks with a shared file system and persistent memory.

IMO, we need more security engineers with an SRE mindset. I highly recommend at least skimming Google’s SRE books: https://t.co/LHG6Ge359S

there are also some great Google @CloudSecPodcast episodes on this topic, including EP133 (@anton_chuvakin).

[Phil Venables @philvenables]

Why Your Security Controls are Silently Failing (and How applying SRE principles to CRE Fixes It).

Most security breaches aren't caused by unstoppable attackers or sophisticated zero-day exploits, but by defenses we thought were working failing us at the exact moment they were needed. Controls naturally decay over time, and relying on assumptions that they are operational is a recipe for disaster. Applying Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles to our cybersecurity controls with Control Reliability Engineering (CRE). Treat security mechanisms as high-scale engineering objects and move away from reactive troubleshooting.

a happy AI future prediction: life gets a lot more *human centered*.

- AI efficiency flattens competition
- flat competition leads to many more small businesses
- small business success is built on personal relationships
- relationships increase in value

i’ve never felt more behind. the role of the programmer is being radically refactored; our direct contributions are becoming the connective tissue between automated outputs.

there is a clear 10x productivity boost available to those who can master this new abstraction layer.

hotel bookings natively on perplexity are quietly growing. it's one of the under-the-radar features we have right now that has a massive potential to disrupt the ad industry. google's second biggest adword category i think.

Le Monde — one of the most respected newspapers in the world — is now using our Sonar API to power search + discovery on their site.

Real-time, grounded answers. Directly on one of the most trusted destinations on the internet.

Huge moment for open knowledge.

one of the ways to stay relevant when AI takes over coding is to think of yourself as an architect

and thus you should learn everything about how computers work so that you can guide AI coders to push better code

building a framework where moods aren’t just outputs, but dynamic states resolved through multi-agent swarms. each agent competes, collaborates, and negotiates to dominate the emotional landscape.

the result isn’t static - it’s emergent, fluid, and alive.

[Perplexity @perplexity_ai]

Thank you for making 2024 extraordinary. The journey of learning and building continues!

[Scott Hausman @hausman_]

2024 was the year of curiosity on @perplexity_ai

billions of searches, endless questions.

what dominated the conversation in tech, finance, and shopping? how did interests shift across the world? what kept you coming back?

the year of answers starts here.

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

Was great to meet you and discuss AI, its uses and its evolution.

Good to see you doing great work with @perplexity_ai. Wish you all the best for your future endeavors.

[Perplexity @perplexity_ai]

You made billions of searches on Perplexity in 2024.

Which topics trended across tech, finance, shopping, and more? How did questions vary across regions? What were you most curious about?

This is Perplexity’s Year of Answers.
