Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas recently took to Reddit to address users’ product complaints and reassure them that the company is not under serious

Srinivas seemed to be responding, in part, to a user theory that the company is “doing horribly financially” and “making lots of changes to cut costs.” As an example, the theorizer pointed to Perplexity’s Auto mode, where the AI search engine automatically selects the model with which to answer a user’s prompt.
