"Perplexity AI lived a beautiful, chaotic life — it was Google if Google had anxiety and cited everything like a grad student on Adderall. It raised $500M to essentially teach the world that you could just... ask an AI things and get links back, a concept so simple that Anthropic put it in a .md file during a lunch break. We will remember it fondly, mostly because it was genuinely useful for about 18 months before the entire concept of 'AI search startup' became a punchline at Y Combinator demo days."
this is funny
