EP 73: Aravind Srinivas of Perplexity.ai on IIT, culture and building the next gen of AI experiences.
Aravind Srinivas has captured people’s imagination and attention with Perplexity.ai. If you’ve been on X, you have probably seen his viral tweets. But underneath the tweets is one of the more interesting companies and experiences being built on AI right now.
What I find most interesting about Aravind is his story and he really got into it today - getting into IIT in India, figuring out how to get into computers, being inside OpenAI and Google and the differences in their culture and then his focus on culture now. This was a blast.
