00:00Perplexity Comet AI Browser is now free for everyone.

00:04Perplexity's Comet is rocketing out of beta and into everyone's hands for free.

00:08Three months ago, Comet was a VIP-only perk for the company's $200 a month max subscribers.

00:14Now, after millions queued up on the waitlist, Perplexity is throwing open the airlock.

00:20So what makes Comet different from the Chromes, Edges, and Safaris of the world?

00:23Imagine a browser with a built-in co-pilot, a sidecar AI assistant that reads the page with you,

00:30answers your questions, summarizes articles, helps you navigate,

00:34and occasionally makes you wonder why you've been copy-pasting URLs into ChatGPT this whole time.

00:40That's the free tier.

00:41Comet also bundles Discover Spaces, Shopping, Travel, Finance, and Sports.

00:46Think personalized news feed, project management, price hunting, trip planning, budgeting, and investments,

00:52plus scores and updates.

00:54Basically, it wants to be your browser, your planner, and your over-caffeinated personal assistant rolled into one.

01:00But the real buzz is about the new background assistant, revealed this week by CEO Ervin Srinivas.

01:07Exclusive to max subscribers, it's pitched as a team of assistants working for you,

01:11complete with a mission control dashboard.

01:14While you work, it might draft an email, book you a flight,

01:16and even snag concert tickets before they sell out, then ping you when it's done.

01:20You still give final approval, with no complaints about Ticketmaster queues.

01:25Of course, Perplexity isn't the only one shooting for the AI browser crown.

01:29The browser company is pushing its own AI-infused DIA and OpenAI has its own browser project in the works.

01:36That means Comet has to prove its agentic magic isn't just hype,

01:40or most folks will stick with what they already know.

01:50But if you can do it again, you probably need to do something.

01:57This is where you're on training, and we're talking about how you're exhausted.

01:58You can see it.

01:59But there's not gonna be anyone who's interested in doing it.

02:01That means making sure that you're on a boat track to achieve anything.

02:03Don't you know that you should have aop-up plan?

02:05I would case, but know where the main thing I see.

02:06I think to the driver builds on day, and you're to Magic and they're looking for people,

02:08and I think to want your background, so I don't hear anything about itб

02:10about your time before I'm in the next slide.
