Perplexity CEO Arav Srinivas shows off a new use of Perplexity Computer: running simulations before real-world testing. The agent built a futures research lab that keeps working after the task ends, developing 604 strategies with at least 60% win rates and positive returns after costs in historical backtests, with an automation checking new gold, Nasdaq-100, and S&P 500 data every 30 minutes.
