I could listen to Aravind all day. His intelligence, his humility, his vision. I admire him and see a bright future for any company he starts.
This is hands down the most revealing and honest conversation I’ve ever seen from a CEO.
Thank you!
I have to compliment the long-walk (40 minutes) to Perplexity talk, it really shows an underlying sophistication in this shows podcast planning.
in this entire podcast, I carry that statement " work like hell 👽".
okk gai sensie
Great episode !!! I have been following Aravind’s journey for over 2 years and I sure he will go places. Kudos to his vision and the amazing product born out of it
Great conversation Aarthi & Sriram and best wishes to Aravind!
Its amazing the level of clarity that he has and how clearly he is able to articulate his thoughts.
Totally loved this ! Kudos Aravind !! Best pod so far.
Great Pod @Aarthi & Sriram! Aravind is truly inspiring !
Enjoyed this a lot. Excellent questions and discussion from Aarthi & Sriram. Huge fan of Aravind & Perplexity after this. Aravind had great insights into the startup landscape & startup organizational structure/process. I especially enjoyed the insights into openai vs deepmind circa 2019 as well as how he selects talent at Perplexity.
Electrical engineering is great prep for Machine Learning, my brother did EE from Princeton and now works at Perplexity lol….
How so any correlation? (Context: i start my engineering this ay)
dynamical systems + systems based thinking + control theory + signal processing @@unnavsharma6439
@@unnavsharma6439 may be maths , EE ECE maths is more similar to AIML math,
I also did electrical and ventually became a data scientist.
Great episode!
Fun observation: I just installed the Perplexity iOS app on my phone. They let you choose the app icon design on home screen from a list of options. Never seen this before😅
you guys are awesome hosts! keep em coming guys!❤
Nice podcast. Arvind has great thought process and vision. Perplexity is the company to watch out for. Btw, Silicon valley biggies are also invested in. I hope Arvind will inspire our youngsters to work hard and come out with great products...
Great show guys. Vera level guest..just wondering how come only 25k followers ;) this benefits so many more people
it's a great answerer and tool!
great bit on differences between cultures
Nice to know about Aravind earlier life. I'm also starting from python 😊
Lovely conversation guys. First time i am hearing this podcast.. awesome
this is our Hero.Go Arvind
its worth a full watch,
Good interview. Good guest
As a power user of Perplexity, I'd love to work for them, even if its for free.. For your info, I just accumulated student loan for my CS program
Keep having these conversations guys. Inspiring to see regular people succeed at the highest level!
Yeah a regular person with IIT btech degree, PhD at Berkley, ex-googler, ex-openAI 😅
@@MohanRaj-vp1zt lol I see the irony. I meant middle class chennai guy who essentially made it with his own effort and hard work.
Great interview!
Thank you!
Please do podcast with chamath, Jacob, sacks, Friedberg
Very good talk
nice evening pod!!
Perplexity pushes popularization of mainstream viewpoints in science can indeed minimize the exposure to divergent viewpoints, which may be detrimental to the open-mindedness and humility required in the pursuit of truth. In the context of science, the selection and emphasis of certain viewpoints over others can lead to a skewed understanding of scientific debates and may hinder the advancement of knowledge.
So much better than Google when you are looking for an answer. Anything which minimizes the time of search will be the best tool
Great questions and content. Enjoyed the interview.
Just a suggestion.
Sriram needs to slow down and take down the accent. It just compromises clarity of speech.
Good podcast overall.
Arav Srinivas:
- Work super hard, & change your attitude early on toward your life, and increase the surface area of your life by giving yourself more shots!
- Intellectual Honesty is a must.
- Patrick calls for an argument that no matter how good you are or how bad you are, you're not going to make a big dent difference, for the future like companies mostly run by PMs and VPs, and whatever they want is decided by the board & CEOs and those are what matters but it's very different from a startup ecosystem and if you want to truly measure up if you want to see if you're capable of something harder, the best way to do that is to come to a startup and like, you know, jump into the water and see how you can swim, but then that argument works, work with people who are excited about challenges and not motivated by money.
i'm exactly listing this poscast while in my hostel room lol
could you pls quote the name of movie mentioned here. i couldnt gather it myself from audio.
Pirates of silicon valley?
👍🙏He is doing as same as elon musk and top business leader in starting because I research on elon, mark (FB) they did same (adaptive future technology and work on it. 🙏👏
Ram bhai jara slow bolo yaar.. kitna fast Volta hai… samaj nahi aata.. especially with that thick ascent
which movie is that ?
So what does Perplexity offer that copilot does not.
Much better ux
Uncle and aunty kindly bring parag agarwal and his wife vineeta as well. As far as i know, vineeta works at a16z
Can anyone help me to get movie name… pirates … I didn’t get the word
Pirates of Silicon Valley
@@AarthiAndSriram thanks
They sound like meryl Streep from don’t look up.
What's the name of the movie he talked about, somewhere near 33:00
Pirates of the silicon valley
@@krishnakumark464 Thanks
Sriram dude, you look a bit malnutritioned/burnt-out while Aarthi is glowing. Are you just eating thaiyir saadam and pickle? Take tips from her.
Lolz bro 😂
It’s the lighting. He’s needs to get warmer and not try to be cooler.
Great chat
The reality is, nowhere else in the world could you receive investment and actively not focus on getting to profitability. That simply doesnt happen in europe, africa or asia. Investors expect profits within 24 months or at least a clear plan. The fact Figma was funded for a decade without ever having a profit is insane.
It doesn’t even happen outside the Bay Area.
9:43 african parents too, not oxbridge then its nothing 😅
Nowhere
Perplexity is not free like Chat GPT
What you don't like about Perplexity?
@@xtu373 I didn’t say I don’t like. I said it’s not free
@@L20241 Got it. - we are building a new cool product would you be interested in sharing how can we make a better product then Perplexity? How you want Perplexity to be?
Other thing is also that they do not have any custom mode, rather using open-source ones like LLAMA, and mistral.
Aisa situation pahli baar nahi hain Mera. Harek saal March me Aisa hi tum log karti hon apna kaam nikalwane ke liye aur fir May se Maa behan ko gaali deti hon , tumlog pe kon bhrosa karega , hum to pahle bhi maa behan ka gaali sune hain aur March , April me bhi sunana chahate hain ? Taab na tumhara asli chehra dikhega, hypocrisy
Ah. Not another interviewer who does the boring bit first - tell us how you got into xxx. Yuck!
Berkeley is a cigarette... We all know it...
All three local chennaiites 😂😂😂
Used perplexity for 2 months while building business, absolutely useless, it uses googles answers and try to be smarter. Very basic flatform and answer structure, my 7 year old woukd answer better period
Ask him to please incoporate his company in india let there be google like company from india
He has business partners and investors who are Americans.
Perplexity is a one hit wonder. Aravind Srinivas is a pretty cool dude so he'll do well but the search engine is dead. Mark my words and let's see if it goes anywhere in 3 years by 2027.
Great podcast! But nothing more fun than watching a bunch of NRIs having an accent.
After you live in US for more than 6-7 years, your accent automatically becomes like that. Arvind isn't faking his accent as you are thinking it of to be.
@@ashutoshpadhi2782 I never said he is faking it😂
I'm favoured, $60k every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America.
Same here, with my current portfolio made from my investments with my personal financial advisor I totally agree with you
Life is easier when the cash keeps popping
in, thanks to Elizabeth Ann graney services. Glad she's getting the recognition she deserves
This sounds so good and I would like to be a party to this, is there any way I can speak with her?
Sure! She interacts on what's Apk using the digit below👇🏻
After I raised up to 125k trading with Elizabeth Graney I bought a new House and a car here in the states also paid for my son's surgery Glory to God shalom.
When is this PR stunt going to be over Arvind? Use some of that free printed money to build something useful instead of just running PR campaigns. Shame to tamilians worldwide.
WTH dude.
U achieved somuch by commenting here?
At a young age he is creating enough thunders stop farting on comment section .. proud of you Aravind 🇮🇳
Pity you... What are you currently struggling? Hope you get some help soon!
Krawl AI is a pretty awesome alternative
Great conversation Aarthi & Sriram and best wishes to Aravind!
