1 - 🤝 Perplexity joins anti ad push

AI search startup Perplexity ditches ads, citing trust concerns, and pivots to paid services for professionals, as rivals like OpenAI explore ad-based monetization.

📌 Details

Decision: Perplexity phases out ads, halting new ad deals.

Reason: Executives say ads make users doubt chatbot answers.

Focus: Shift toward subscription services for business users (lawyers, doctors, CEOs).

Industry divide: OpenAI leans into ads, Anthropic rejects them.

Future possibility: Ads not ruled out entirely, but seen as misaligned with user needs.

Core mission: Perplexity emphasizes accuracy and truth over ad revenue.

🎯 Takeaway: Perplexity’s anti-ad stance highlights a growing split in AI monetization: trust-driven subscriptions vs. ad-funded models. It bets that accuracy and credibility will win over users.
