Now, there’s no subscription, waitlist, or invite code required. (Now, people are hunting down Sora 2 invite codes<\/a>.)<\/p>\n Here’s how to download Comet from Perplexity.<\/p>\n How to download Comet<\/p>\n Perplexity has set up a very simple landing page for Comet, so simply head to the Comet website<\/a> and follow these instructions.<\/p>\n \n Mashable Light Speed\n <\/p>\n What You Need<\/p>\n Internet access<\/p>\n Laptop or desktop computer<\/p>\n \n Step 1: \n Step 2: \n Step 3: \n Step 4: \n Step 5: Credit: Perplexity\n <\/p>\n Comet is currently available for Windows (Windows 10 and 11) and macOS (M1 or newer chips), but Perplexity says it will be launching for more platforms in the near future.<\/p>\n What is Comet?<\/p>\n Comet is an AI web browser from the AI search engine company Perplexity.\u00a0<\/p>\n Mashable tested Comet out<\/a> back when it was invite-only in July. Perplexity’s stand out feature that separates it from other web browsers is its integrated AI features, particularly its built-in AI assistant. Perplexity users don’t have to have a browser tab with an AI chatbot open or a separate app at the ready. Perplexity’s AI assistant enables users to interact, ask questions, and assign tasks right there in the browser itself.<\/p>\n AI web search is increasingly becoming a hot commodity. Google clearly views AI search as the direction search engines should go in, which explains why they’ve integrated AI Mode<\/a> so visibly into its default web search engine.<\/p>\n Google’s web browser Chrome<\/a> is extremely popular, so much so that it commands nearly 72 percent<\/a> of the entire web browser market share around the world. And because Google Search is built-in as the default search engine in Chrome, the browser’s popularity ensures that Google’s search engine remains popular too, even as the quality of Google search degrades<\/a>.<\/p>\n Perplexity, an AI search company, wants to replicate Chrome and Google Search’s tandem success. As more internet users move to Comet, it ensures more users perform web searches with Perplexity, the built-in default search engine in the AI web browser.<\/p>\n Did you try out Comet?
