Aravind Srinivas, CEO of Perplexity AI, confidently addressed rumors questioning the company's financial health and product functionality on the r/Perplexity_AI subreddit. He directly responded to a user theory claiming that the company was pausing funding for marketing and partnerships due to financial distress. Srinivas emphasized that their automated 'Auto' mode is designed to enhance user experience by simplifying the search process. He firmly denied allegations that the company was cutting costs at the expense of product quality, asserting their commitment to building a reliable and user-friendly AI search engine.
The user shouldn't have to learn so much to use a product. That's the motivation with 'Auto' mode. Let the AI decide for the user if it's a quick-fast-answer query, or a slightly-slower-multi-step pro-search query.
Our goal isn't to save money and scam you in any way. It's genuinely to build a better product with less clutter and simple selector for customization options.
