📝 Everything is Computer A computer used to be a person It was someone who did the calculations for others with questions. For example, when astronomers had questions, their apprentices were the ones who actually did the work to try to find answers. They were the computers. Over time, the computer became mechanical, then digital, then personal. Now, the computer is changing again. Computer is anywhere Last week, we launched Perplexity Computer. It orchestrates over 20 models, deciding which models to handle which task. Today we’re bringing Computer to enterprise and mobile. The same orchestration engine now runs inside your company and your phone. Personal Computer Everyone talks about “the first 1-person, 1-billion-dollar company.” It’s a meme. For a single person to build a 1B company, what’s the single biggest disadvantage they have? They have to sleep at night. So a true personal computer has to be always-on. It must be able to work on your behalf. Today we announced Personal Computer. It’s a persistent digital proxy for you. It’s in a secure environment and controllable from any device, anywhere. It works with a Mac mini that runs continuously, merging your local applications with Perplexity Computer. It runs on Perplexity’s secure servers. Every sensitive action requires your approval, every action is logged in a full audit trail, and there’s a kill switch. And you control the personal computer from anywhere, while the computer works from your desktop. It never sleeps. It’s personal and more powerful than any AI system ever launched. AI is the Computer A traditional operating system takes instructions. An AI operating system takes objectives. When AI is the computer, it reasons what should be done, and then programmatically executes. Personal Computer allows that to happen continuously, on your behalf, safely, with the full capability to do anything you can personally do. Personal Computer is more powerful than any AI system ever launched. It’s the ultimate, full-access orchestration machine, securely done on the server. Four hundred years ago, computers were people. Today the AI is the computer. It orchestrates models, reads the web, uses your tools, writes the code, does the work. Everything in technology changes. Curiosity is forever. http://x.com/i/article/20317493798504243…
