☄️ Comet now free: The AI browser that makes you 10x more productive

Just when you thought you had your AI workflow under control, Perplexity is making its $200 AI-first browser Comet completely free for everyone to use.

And that could completely transform your browsing experience! It certainly did for us, and we now use Comet almost exclusively.

Set Comet as your default browser

As we explained in our article here, Comet isn't just a browser with a few AI features tacked on, but is designed from the ground up as an AI assistant that surfs the web with you and thinks along with you.

Sure, a new browser sounds like a lot of effort at first (but it's not really). But this isn't about giving your bookmarks bar a new coat of paint—it's about a fundamental shift.

But it's only through daily use that you discover the little and big hacks that really make your everyday work easier. For chaotic people like us, who do a thousand things at once, it's the ultimate efficiency machine.

Switching is easy. Install it, import everything from your current browser (the extensions work too, by the way), set it as your default, and you're done!

And then these new possibilities are available to you:

• Agentic Actions: Comet can automatically perform complex tasks across multiple websites. For example, it can simultaneously query all chatbots, copy everything into a Google Doc, etc. This is truly the best feature!

• Tab organization: Automatically sort chaotic tabs by category.

• Smart Research: Collects information from multiple sources and summarizes everything.

• Shopping Assistant: Compare prices, find the best deals, all automatically.

• Context: Understands which page you are on and can work with it directly.

• AI integration: No more constantly switching between your browser and AI tool.

• Generate images: Simply enter your request in the search field!

• Email Drafting: Compose replies directly in your browser (Pro version only!).

The battle for browser supremacy is on

What is currently happening at the meta level should not be underestimated. We are witnessing the transition from classic browsers to AI agents that actively work for us instead of just displaying websites. Perplexity is not the only provider, but it is currently ahead of the pack (in terms of features, not market share). Other players include:

• Claude has a new browser extension that offers similar features. Currently only available to selected Claude Max subscribers, but very promising.

• GenSpark goes one step further with its own browser and also supports open source LLMs locally. This means AI power even without an internet connection!

• And Google isn't resting, either. Project Mariner will soon bring agent-based browser functions. As a first step, Gemini integration is now available in Chrome (initially only in the US).

• There are also rumors that OpenAI will soon be launching its own AI browser.

Our take: Just try it for yourself

The browser is currently evolving into the ultimate AI control center. If you switch now, you'll establish routines early on, instead of just dabbling with add-on tools later on.

If you use it regularly, you will quickly discover which research, content, and organizational tasks can be elegantly accelerated. That's exactly why we recommend using Comet as your main browser now, or at least testing it thoroughly.

It currently provides the most comprehensive "always-ready" experience, as you can access answers, sources, and actions directly where the work is being done. So, give it a try! Fail fast, learn faster, and things will only get better. Have fun experimenting.

 🤙 Everyone's talking about Sora 2—here's what you need to know

In the midst of a hot autumn, one model update follows another. Claude Sonnet 4.5 is the best coder, Hunyuan Image is the newly crowned king of image models, Gemini 3 is set to arrive this week—and what is OpenAI doing?

They're shaking up the entire AI video world with Sora 2, even before today's DevDay happened (more about this soon). You can sign up at https://sora.com (iPhone app here, only in the US/Canada) – you can find invite codes on X, in the OpenAI Discord or here, for example.

Sora 2 and the copyright issue...

Sora 2 not only delivers deceptively realistic video clips, but also synchronized sound. Dialogues, sound effects, and ambient sounds—it's all there. Even the physics are often practically flawless.

Sam Altman confidently states that they want to transparently show what the technology is capable of. They have succeeded in doing so, because Sora 2 is a real copyright nightmare – deliberately so, of course... Pokémon cooking tutorials, Mario videos, Sonic, GTA, everything is generated.

Here are a few examples:

Of course, this will not remain the case. Sam has published an update stating that user feedback will lead to rapid updates, that rights holders will have more control over the use of their characters, and that monetization is planned. Since he is probably the most frequently used persona on the Sora platform, he could even earn himself a little pocket money on the side. 😁.

🎭 OpenAI launches AI TikTok—and you can clone yourself!

What's really exciting, however, is that OpenAI has not only released a model, but also a complete social media app.

• In the app, you will find a feed with AI-generated videos (like TikTok, only everything is AI).

• You can create your own videos or remix those of others. The algorithm curates based on your activity, location, and even your ChatGPT history.

• After two days, it immediately jumped to number 1 in the App Store, overtaking ChatGPT and Gemini (and even faster than ChatGPT did back then).

• The killer feature of Sora 2 is definitely the cameo function! It allows you to insert yourself into AI videos—and you can even allow others to insert you into their videos.

• … or, you can also create entire vlogs with fictional influencers.

By the way, Meta has just launched something very similar with Vibes. Only without the cameo feature, primarily with music instead of dialogue—and unlike Sora 2, no one is talking about it.…

It hasn't even helped that Zuck has partnered with Midjourney AND Black Forest Labs!

Business Use Cases: Where Sora 2 fits perfectly

Back to OpenAI. Apart from the feed with endless AI slop, there are of course also tangible use cases in the business environment where the use of Sora 2 will bring a real advantage:

• In the area of e-commerce & marketing: Product demos, personalized video ads, seasonal content with campaigns for holidays and events

• Content Creation: Social Media Shorts for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, Storytelling, corporate videos without crew

• Education & Training: Videos are ideal for explaining complex concepts visually.

API access for developers should be available soon.

And why does OpenAI need a Social Network?

Why all this? Is it just about memes? Of course not. It's about business.

The strategy is clear: attention first, monetization second. If you zoom out a little, you can see that OpenAI has prepared three new advertising formats virtually overnight (which are just waiting to be commercialized):

• Sponsored videos in Sora 2: The logical next step. Your feed will likely have a few ads soon.

• Pulse: Daily topic updates for Pro users, in push mode.

• Buy in ChatGPT: A Shopify integration that enables direct shopping in chat.

Our take: Game changer with a question mark

Sora 2 is technologically really good. The improvements in physics simulation and audio sync are no small steps, quite the contrary.

The barrier to participation is practically zero. This naturally causes an explosion in the amount of slop, but also in creativity. In other words, more people can tell more stories. But misinformation also becomes video reality.

Copyright issues have not been clarified, safety features are not yet fully developed, and the ethical implications of "anyone can create videos of anyone" are strange.

This is an absolutely hot tool for content creators, marketers, and anyone who needs video content quickly. It's best used as a creative accelerator, but only with your own assets and without characters from third-party rights holders. And secure your name/brand as an abbreviation!

Sam says quite openly: "We need the capital to build AI that helps science." Aka AGI. Basically, the dopamine-triggering videos are financing the development of superintelligence …

You made it to the end—thanks for reading! We’ll be back soon with even more updates.
