Perplexity’s Computer shows consumer AI may become multi-model

The future of AI may not be one model for everything.

What happened

Perplexity introduced or discussed a Computer product built around the idea that users may need access to many AI models.

Why it matters

Different models perform better on different tasks. A consumer product that routes across models could make AI feel more flexible and useful.

The bigger picture

Multi-model interfaces may become a serious category. The winning assistant might not be the smartest single model, but the best layer for choosing between models.
