Perplexity’s Aravind Srinivas on everyday AI at Disrupt 2024
As AI competition heats up, Perplexity has proven resilient due to its focus on using the technology strictly as a tool to let people “learn anything in their own way.” But how will the company face down tech giants, AI rivals, and the growing controversy over AI and intellectual property? CEO and co-founder Aravind Srinivas will explain at Disrupt 2024 in San Francisco.
Perplexity is one of a handful of top-level AI providers vying for the position of successor to the search engine. But there are countless questions about the suitability of language models for this purpose, the cost and complexity of building and running them, and most recently, whether their use of copyrighted material is lawful or ethical.
Srinivas certainly has opinions on these things. A former researcher at Google DeepMind and OpenAI before he co-founded Perplexity, he can speak to both the technical and strategic sides of how this tech is turning the industry upside down — and how Perplexity plans to come out on top.
We can’t wait to hear from Srinivas and other AI leaders on the AI Stage at this year’s TechCrunch Disrupt 2024.
