"Amazon has sent a cease-and-desist letter accusing Perplexity AI of using its Comet browser agent to make purchases on Amazon without authorization, prompting Perplexity to fire back with a public statement alleging bullying and intimidation from the e-commerce juggernaut."

Bezos invested in Perplexity's Series B round in January 2024 through his Bezos Expeditions venture fund.

Perplexity AI draws its name from a key metric in natural language processing. This term measures how well language models predict text, with lower perplexity indicating better performance.[linkedin]

Name Origin

The word “perplexity” stems from Latin “perplexus,” meaning entangled or confused, and evolved in English to describe puzzlement from complexity. In AI, it specifically quantifies cross-entropy loss as Perplexity = exponential(cross-entropy), rewarding models that generate more predictable, accurate outputs. Founders chose it to highlight their tool’s aim for precise, low-perplexity answers via large language models.[vocabulary +1]

Not About Confusion

Everyday “perplexity” implies bewilderment, but here it signals clarity and reliability, not muddled responses. Responses prioritize sourced facts for trustworthy insights, countering any notion of confusion.

"We named it Perplexity because we MINIMIZE perplexity!"

Lol, that's like naming your company "Error" or "Defect"

Surprisingly, Perplexity is not bad at all. Close to what GPT 4.0 used to be before it turned to trash with the rollout of GPT 5.0 and beyond.
