The $20B AI Company That’s Quietly Redefining Accuracy in the Age of Generative AI Most AI tools today are confident — even when they’re wrong. Ask for the average price of coffee in New York, and you might get: “$5” Sounds reasonable. But it’s just a guess — no source, no evidence. Now imagine getting: “According to a 2025 study and Yelp data, the average is $6.30.” With links to the original sources. Fully verifiable. That’s the core of what Perplexity AI is building. Instead of relying solely on language models to generate answers, they use Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) a system that pulls information from credible, real-time sources before responding. The result? ✅ Verified, citation-backed answers ✅ Live data instead of outdated training sets ✅ Trustworthy insights across industries From finance to media, this shift is massive. Companies can now rely on AI not just for speed but for accuracy. While tech giants tried (and failed) to acquire them, Perplexity stayed independent and grew into a $20B force. In a world full of noise, this signals a shift in AI: Not just models that speak well, but models that back it up. #PerplexityAI #GenerativeAI #AIStartup #ArtificialIntelligence #FutureOfAI #MachineLearning #StartupSuccess #RAG #Clearmatrix
