Perplexity CEO: everyone will have a team of agents setting direction for them
AravSrinivas · x · 2026-11-06
Arav Srinivas argues today's "one person, one task at a time" model will flip: everyone will have a team of agents doing the work, while people set direction and make the calls that matter.
He notes this takes more than a frontier model — agents need to remember you and your org, learn to work with each other and your coworkers, run on their own, and improve with every correction. Teammates is Perplexity's first step toward that.
