Crazy adversarial interviewer, and Aravind frankly killed it with a calm and conscious answers through this new era of technology. Was in the room and you can tell the tech community’s energy is very behind him.
Agreed! Omg.. I like TechCrunch less now because of this. I mean what’s right or wrong is up to the judge, but if they don’t like them, don’t have them there, is that hard?!
@ they threw a great event this week and I think this was still very engaging conversation all withstanding. Seems like the interviewer may have had some personal grievance coming from a journalism background, but I think it brought about a very candid conversation which is welcomed.
@@mriz if you call this journalism that’s just laughable. Also audiences were in the room to get to know and learn from different founders from different backgrounds, whether right or wrong they could judge, not to be there watching you do “journalism”, thanks
It sounds pretty adversarial, but it's kinda good for reporters to ask tough questions, and hopefully he keeps the same energy when talking to other leaders in the space. Also, wonderfully handled by Arvind tbh.
the interviewer will never build anything of consequence. his opinions dont matter. i wish he is put in his place soon. he was not coming from a place of curiosity but a place of motivated vengence
@@gimmedatthing7829 I didn't even know it was started by an Indian when I started using it. Also, unlike you, I don't look up the race of the founder before using a product.
The “journalist” was in the attack from the start. What a joke of an interviewer who takes a founders time who is trying to create something valuable in the world and spend the entire time trying to poke holes in the product, damage their credibility. Aravind did a great job keeping his composure. WOW - doesn’t even shake his hand after the interview.
Its funny how Journalists get so pissed when talking to perplexity but be so soft when asking questions to Zuck or Sama while they be ripping the whole internet apart to train Llama and Chat GPT
Total embrassment for the interviewer. Shame on you Senior Editor. Aravind Srinivas completely Killed it with grace and calm. Perplexity is next revolution.
What a buzzkill interviewer asking a LLMs based company why they are raising money? For infra, compute, training and inference. Could not have gotten a more uneducated interviewer. Decades of journalism experience my foot.
Combative interviewer for no reason. Not showing curiosity but looking for a “gotcha” moment ! Arvind handled it with calm and maturity. Why does the interviewer have such an adversarial approach ?
Was this an interview or an interrogation? Also why does the interviewer think perplexity consumes news? Why does any Gen AI company consume news? Lack of that understanding is a serious concern if one is an editor at Tech crunch
Iconic how tech bros defend mr. Srinivas because they invested in AI bubble, like blockchain folks did in previous craze. Trying to "call out" mr. Coldewey for confronting thief in silk gloves. Just a reminder, you people believed in Theranos and Juicero as well.
After reading these comments they're most likely paid for, or actually working for this scam artist boasting about replacing people striking for people he'd pay pennies on the dollar for.
Awful interviewer. Comes with preconceived notions, various presumptions and with an agenda to throw Aarvind on the backfoot by making all kinds of inaccurate comparisons. The interviewee handled it quite well, with grace and solid answers rooted in facts.
That was one of the worst interviews I've ever seen. Seem like he just walked in with an agenda to discredit. I mean the question about why raise so much money is just ridiculous. The questions actually reveal more about the interviewer than Aravind. Admire the patience and well thought out answers from Aravind. Inspiring.
Ok so when you 'pull out' information with your footnotes the author is not rewarded, that's the problem. When the information is on the website it can at least be monetized. I think perplexity and similar should do revenue share with authors when its ok. Now you just go steal and re-sell to your users. Its not ok
Devin needs to be coached in conducting proper interviews. If anything, my respect for Aravind went further up. I see gross unprofessionalism and condescending behavior. @techcrunch please do better in getting your interviewing team to be professional
Mr Senior Editor - Easy to ask questions and also written down questions, blah blah blah, oops. Perplexity and AI is great. Lets have editor agent ask questions next time with clear system prompt, dont be rude :) How the heck this guy has survived as senior editor for 15 years.? Hehe Will this editor have the same body language and questions to Elon M?

Rooting for Perplexity! Phenomenal product.
only cause you're an indian

@@gimmedatthing7829lol you must be an artists or writer cuz only these two professions are butt hurt by perplexity
Just so you know TechCrunch - I hadn't even heard your name before today. I came here because of Perplexity and Aravind!

What an embarassing interviewer. Decent questions but he doesn't need to be such a hater
Aravind handled this interview perfectly
Interviewer should not mistake his kind introverted personality for being an easy target.
Combative interviewer for no reason. Not showing curiosity but looking for a “gotcha” moment ! Arvind handled it with calm and maturity. Why does the interviewer have such an adversarial approach ?
Composed and Insightful. Way to go Aravind.
Aravind out here talking about an AI-curated web while I’m still trying to get my AI to stop recommending 10-year-old cat videos
This is the WORST interviewer. Do better #TCDisrupt

Copyrights or AI, we have to choose. If we want accurate answers, they can't come from the public domain.

Aravind, instead of blaming OpenAI , you could have atleast admitted that you are using openai API.

Not good interviewer…he will not be able to extract Knowledge out of Arvinds experience..he lost an opportunity

Tech Crunch interviewer is so sarcastic and speaking rudely. Have an open mind dude. The interviewer is so jealous of the perplexity CEO
Bro citations don't pay the bills!
Perplexity rocks..
The interviewer was a total embarrassment. Aravind was a class act!
OMG. If this interviewer hasn’t already got fired after this horrible attitude being exposed, probably techcrunch is a toxic company inherently.
The worst interviewer in the world, what a pity. Good participation by Aravind.
#TCDisrupt, couldn't you find a proper interviewer? Or is that the best you got?

Devin, you're the worst interviewer ever.
Worst interviewer ever...
AI to media/content industry
Let me work with you so that I can take over what you do 😊
Citations mean shit when you lift and place more than X% of the content.
They need to take monetization seriously, it's okay if companies fail to build great UIs, as long as their content is useful for the LLMs
🤌🏻🤌🏻
