• Try “Visualize….” in Computer and ask for whatever you want to learn visually. You will now get an inline viz with rich educative and interactive widgets and animations! Have fun! Best experienced on Standard or High effort.@AravSrinivasX · Oct 3, 2026
  QuotedComputer@AskPerplexityHere are 5 examples of inline visualizations that Computer can create directly in your thread: 1. Show me how a jet engine works in an inline 3D cutaway. https://t.co/HGBRxoDBO6

• Our goal is to vertically integrate our agentic infrastructure: own our sandboxes, and optimize the sandbox for the best silicon. Vera is far better than x86. Look forward to sharing more soon as we begin to rollout deployment of Perplexity Computer on Vera.@AravSrinivasX · Oct 3, 2026
  QuotedPerplexity Developers@perplexitydevsWe're looking forward to working with the new @NVIDIA Vera CPU on SPACE. https://t.co/LPwmaRDja7
• Your creativity is the limit in terms of what you can have Computer do for you. This is the kind of project that you can let an agent run for hours to come back with something great.@AravSrinivasX · Oct 2, 2026
  QuotedComputer@AskPerplexityComputer built a 3D map of nearly 26,000 restaurants and cafes across all five boroughs of New York City. Search by dish or neighborhood, then step inside places like Peter Luger and Grand Central Oyster Bar. https://t.co/76bPTAH45e

  RepostedAravind Srinivas@AravSrinivasa few open source contributions from perplexity recently: •pplx-decider-v1-27b: SoTA multimodal decision model. 85.7% average across 11 benchmarks, ahead of Jev. •pplx-embed-v2-context-9b-preview: SoTA contextual embeddings, best on ConTEB and turbopuffer context-bench. •Lily: local inference engine for Apple silicon. rust plus custom metal kernels, no pytorch or mlx. 1.23x faster prefill and 1.35x faster decode than MLX-LM on an M5 Max •PII-Tracer: 0.6B on-device PII classifier that decides when a hybrid compute task stays on your Mac. beats OpenAI’s Privacy Filter on all 5 public benchmarks. also released with the PII-TRACE benchmark: 13k conversations in 13 languages •WANDR: benchmark for wide and deep research agents. 500 tasks needing 170k source-backed records •Numbat: agent detection and response for laptops and workstations. 52 rules, single go binary for macOS, linux and windows •Bumblebee: read-only supply chain scanner for dev machines. covers packages, MCP configs, and editor and browser extensions. a lot more open source contributions coming soon!

  RepostedPaul Fryzel@paulfryzelIt was great to have the @NVIDIA team stop by and drop off their new Vera CPU. A lot of what we’re building depends on agents being able to run more capable code environments, safely and reliably. We’re excited to test this work on Vera. https://t.co/W0ZyPpkuqj
• We would love to hear how we can improve our developer platform!@AravSrinivasX · Oct 2, 2026
  QuotedDenis Bykov@denis_bykovHey, if you've tried any of @perplexity_ai APIs (Search, Agent, Embeddings, Decision, etc.) and were disappointed by anything, please DM me! Would be glad to learn what we should do better :)
