Perplexity Computer uses Comet to kick off workflows in your local browser. We asked it to compare Nano Banana vs Midjourney. Computer: → Opened 5 tabs at once → Ran 5 image gen tasks in parallel → Downloaded and cropped every output → Built a side-by-side comparison deck

That’s not a browser, that’s a full time employee with zero complaints.

Perplexity Computer + Comet cooking full workflows in-browser? Insane Opened tabs, ran parallel gens, cropped + built the deck automatically. This is the future of AI agents.

perplexity is killing it but pity the credits are too expensive

It's probably cheaper if you go on comet and run the same prompt.

it didn't ask for clarification. it didn't freeze. it didn't open spotify by accident. it just worked. genuinely suspicious behavior from software

i dont understand the Computer running on Comet 'hype' when you can just ask Comet to run itself. What's the added value of Computer?

this is why the "delegated workforce" framing keeps winning it's not one AI doing one thing faster, it's parallel execution across multiple tasks simultaneously

A task that costs more money than doing it manually... this credit system is way too expensive. Some tasks will be worth it; this one certainly isn't

And costs 100 USD in credits for that? Over and above the 200 USD max subscription? My intern would take 200 USD a month and run 100s of such tests! Perplexity computer doesn't do anything to justify Credit costs You give me Personal Computer with a 200 USD sub and credit as my mac mini handles everything else, then we're talking!

this is what happens when you focus on actually being useful instead of winning on social media. computer just works

Hi I have a question. For added credits, apparently they expire after 1 year of inactivity. Can you define inactivity?

Local browser control means no API limits, no rate-gating, no vendor lock-in. You're controlling your own execution layer.

5 tabs at once running parallel tasks then auto-building a deck lol. that's the kind of speed that makes manual comparison look like the stone age

That’s not just a browser—it’s like having a dedicated employee who works nonstop and never complains.

Claude is capable of doing tasks that you would otherwise hire contractors to do for half the price. While providing accurate information of usage, limits, and they don't degrade paying customers. CRAZY!

I want to try if computer can make good slides with a predetermined template. Maybe that really is the killer everyday use.

Impressive workflow! Love how efficiently it multitasks. The side-by-side comparison feature is especially neat. Can't wait to see more innovative uses from you all!
