Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas has announced that their new browser, Comet, is set to launch in May. He addressed the importance of maintaining open-source projects, arguing against Google selling Chrome, as it plays a crucial role in the tech ecosystem. Srinivas expressed skepticism about OpenAI acquiring Chrome, citing their lack of commitment to open-source principles. He also hinted at the possibility of tracking user behavior to enhance advertising, although this idea is still hypothetical. Users will have the choice to opt-out of personalized ads, emphasizing privacy alongside functionality.
