Perplexity CEO believes that artificial intelligence agents is the next web battlefield

Wait despite … confusion – like other search engines of artificial intelligence – have been criticized for hallucinations and error.

We welcome this criticism, because it is our best way to improve it constantly. In fact, errors are a small part of the results, and our answers are much more accurate than 10 blue ties contaminated with contracts of improved content for senior economic officials. (In response to the follow -up request, the confusion did not provide further details about the error rates, but Jesse Duaire, a spokesman, said that reliability is constantly improving). But the truth is that accuracy and confidence will become more important only as artificial intelligence is integrated into more of our lives, so this is something that we focus unabated. We cannot get there without these comments.

Also confused is a family of copyright news articles with the “Discovery” section. Do you understand why some publishers feel upset?

We answered that before. See us Blog post On how to respect the Robots.txt (a file was added to the web sites that determine whether web sites have to crawl web access to their content).

It seems that the assistant confusion for Android and iOS “agent” because he can take action. What is the size of this transformation?

Amnesty International is good in answering questions now. What really to do is to obtain Amnesty International to take action. People use the word “agents”; You can go with all you want – “Agent” or “Assistant” – but in the end, it needs to link the tools together and implement the procedures. For this reason we (also building A) browser, IOS assistant, Android.

Does Apple and Google have a lot of control over their portable platforms compared to foreigners looking to build agents?

With iOS, it is especially difficult, because you have to connect a set of event programming interfaces. On iOS, mail, calendar, reminders, podcasts, all of these things are original through Apple SDK (software development group used to build applications), so that you can actually formulate emails, scheduling meetings, transfer meetings, appointment reminder, and all these things, open podcasts easily. You can conduct searches for podcast … “Get the person who discusses Mark Andressen to get rid of the banking with Joe Rogan.” You can get it very quickly.

It is often difficult because you cannot access other applications. IOS is not completely different from Android, because artificial intelligence cannot access most applications on Android either (this means that a confused assistant can interact with some applications more easily than others). (But) Third -party applications can build their SDKS to be available on Android SDK. For example, our Android system can display a song on Spotify. On iOS, you can only link with a specific Spotify song, and you should manually start playing the sound.

Oh, then from the application makers who hinder the agents of artificial intelligence?

This is the challenge. If people offer us applications – Say, open table, Uber, Doordash, or Instacart – where we can access information within the application without the need to open the application. In the back end, this is very strong. For example, if we are able to access information about Uber and find that COMFORT Uber does not cost more than 5 or 10 percent of Uber X, then we can only reserve comfort for you – if this is a preference determined in confusion.
