Details

Description

Perplexity — the $18B AI startup run by Indian-origin Aravind Srinivas -- just made a $34.5B cash offer to buy Google Chrome. Yes, the world’s most popular browser, owned by one of the richest tech giants. The catch? Chrome is worth far more than Perplexity itself, and no one knows where the money would come from. Is this a real bid, a bold regulatory play, or just the perfect PR stunt to promote its own AI browser, Comet? Palki Sharma tells you.
