Perplexity has rolled out an upgraded voice mode for its Comet browser, allowing desktop users to navigate the web entirely by speech. The feature, powered by OpenAI’s gpt-realtime-1.5 model, lets users open sites, scroll pages, and follow links without touching a keyboard or mouse. A simple keyboard shortcut activates the mode, and a similar experience is slated for iOS later this month. Perplexity emphasizes privacy by processing voice locally when possible and avoiding cloud storage of click histories. Future updates promise a learning assistant, password manager, and cross‑device sync. Leer más
