Perplexity AI's Rapid Growth and Challenge to Major Tech Giants

Privately-held Perplexity AI is making significant strides in the AI space, challenging both OpenAI's ChatGPT and Alphabet's Google Search. The company's revenue has surged dramatically, with expectations to hit $35 million this year, up from an initial forecast of $5 million. Perplexity's search platform, which handled 250 million queries in July, stands out for its real-time data capabilities and licensing of generative AI models from major tech firms. Recent funding of $250 million has increased its valuation to $3 billion. By focusing on a revenue-sharing model with publishers and shifting towards ad-based revenue, Perplexity is positioning itself as a formidable competitor in the search engine market.
