Perplexity is making its AI-native browser, Comet, free globally to combat the rise of internet "slop." CEO Aravind Srinivas stated the move aims to build a better, accessible internet. While the free version has rate limits, Comet summarizes pages, extracts key details, and navigates links. This initiative challenges Chrome's dominance, which has been slow to integrate AI features. Perplexity also announced new media partners for its Comet Plus subscription, highlighting efforts to support journalism and share revenue.
