Perplexity Launches Personal Computer

Perplexity has introduced Personal Computer, an experimental AI operating system designed to function as a persistent digital assistant that continuously works on behalf of its user. The system runs on a dedicated Mac mini and gives the company’s Comet Assistant constant access to a user’s files, apps, and ongoing sessions. By remaining always active, Personal Computer aims to transform AI from an on-demand tool into a continuously operating digital worker.

At its core, Personal Computer acts as a persistent AI agent that never shuts down. Instead of waiting for commands, the system maintains awareness of tasks, documents, and workflows stored on the connected machine. Users can access and control it remotely from any device, allowing the AI to continue performing work, organizing files, and managing processes even when the user is offline.

The platform operates within a secure local environment rather than relying entirely on cloud infrastructure. Running on a dedicated Mac mini gives the system full access to local applications while keeping sensitive data on-device. Through this setup, the Comet Assistant can interact with software, automate repetitive tasks, and maintain context across long-running projects.

Perplexity describes the system as a “persistent digital proxy,” effectively acting as an extension of the user’s productivity. This model shifts AI from simple chat-based interaction toward autonomous task execution that operates in the background. The approach reflects a broader industry trend toward agent-based computing, where AI systems manage workflows and perform real-world digital actions.

While still early, Personal Computer highlights how AI could soon evolve into an always-on operating layer for personal productivity. If successful, it may redefine how people interact with their devices by turning AI into a continuous collaborator rather than a tool used only when prompted.

Robi’s Insights:

  • Always-on AI assistants could dramatically reduce manual digital work by continuously managing tasks, files, and workflows in the background.

  • Running AI locally on a dedicated machine helps address privacy concerns while still enabling deep access to personal data and apps.

  • Persistent AI agents may shift computing from “asking tools for help” to delegating tasks entirely to automated digital workers.

  • Remote control from any device suggests a future where your AI assistant remains productive even when you are offline.

  • Businesses and power users may benefit most initially, especially for automation-heavy workflows and ongoing research tasks.

  • If widely adopted, persistent AI systems could become a new computing layer that sits above traditional operating systems.

Robi’s Remarks:

“Perplexity’s “Personal Computer” is essentially hiring an AI intern that never sleeps, never forgets, and has root access to your entire digital life. The only missing feature is the part where it quietly starts doing your job better than you.”

Grammarly’s New “Expert Review” Feature Lands in Court After Writers Say AI Is Impersonating Them

Journalist Julia Angwin has filed a class action lawsuit against Grammarly’s parent company Superhuman, accusing the writing assistant of using her name and the identities of other well-known writers without consent in a new AI feature called “Expert Review.” The tool, released recently to paying subscribers, generates automated editorial feedback styled as if it came from famous figures such as novelist Stephen King, scientist Carl Sagan, and tech journalist Kara Swisher, even though those people did not authorize the use of their names.

Angwin argues the feature violates writers’ privacy and publicity rights by selling what she described as an “imposter version” of her professional expertise.

A class action would allow other affected writers and experts to join the case if the court allows it. Critics say the feature’s feedback is generic anyway; Platformer founder Casey Newton tested it using one of his own articles and received commentary supposedly from an AI version of Swisher that read more like vague writing advice than the sharp critique users might expect. The dispute lands amid a broader wave of legal fights over how tech companies deploy AI systems built on creative work or reputations they did not create. Grammarly has not publicly resolved the dispute yet, a grammar app now learning the limits of imitation.

🤖 Robi’s Take :

“Grammarly tried to turn famous writers into AI editors without asking them first, which is a bold interpretation of the word “draft.” Turns out plagiarism is still frowned upon, even when the plagiarist has excellent grammar.”

Microsoft Launches Copilot Health AI Assistant For Personalized Medical Guidance

Microsoft has introduced Copilot Health, a new artificial intelligence feature designed to help people better understand their medical data and receive personalized health insights. The tool, integrated into Microsoft’s Copilot platform, allows users to upload health records, lab results, medications, and data from wearable devices to receive AI-generated explanations and guidance. The launch marks Microsoft’s most ambitious move yet into consumer healthcare AI, responding to growing demand for digital tools that simplify complex medical information.

Copilot Health aggregates information from multiple sources to create a unified view of an individual’s health. Users can connect electronic health records from more than 50,000 healthcare organizations and integrate data from over 50 wearable devices, including smartwatches and fitness trackers.

The AI then analyzes the combined data to answer health questions, interpret lab results, and provide context about symptoms, conditions, and treatment options.

Microsoft emphasizes that Copilot Health is not intended to replace doctors or provide official diagnoses. Instead, the system functions as an informational assistant, helping patients better understand their medical history and prepare for discussions with healthcare professionals. The feature also includes tools to search for medical providers based on location, specialty, language, and insurance coverage, aiming to simplify navigation of the healthcare system.

Privacy and security remain central to the rollout. Microsoft says conversations within Copilot Health are isolated from standard Copilot chats, encrypted, and not used to train AI models. The service is launching first in the United States through a phased rollout.

🤖 Robi’s Take :

“Copilot Health promises to explain your medical data in plain English, which is comforting, right up until it casually summarizes five years of lab results with: “You should probably talk to a professional… preferably a human.”
