Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas believes their Comet browser has the potential to revolutionize recruitment. In a recent interview, Srinivas stated that the AI-powered browser, currently in beta for Perplexity Max subscribers, could eventually automate a recruiter’s weekly tasks with a single prompt.
While acknowledging Comet’s current limitations, Srinivas envisions a future where the browser agentically handles recruitment processes. This suggests a significant leap in AI capabilities, potentially streamlining candidate sourcing, screening, and initial communication.
Comet is presently available for Windows and macOS. This ambition highlights Perplexity’s commitment to expanding the functionalities of their AI-powered search tool beyond simple information retrieval, aiming for comprehensive task automation.
