thehindu.com [$]

Perplexity AI will pay publishers millions for content used in its AI search engine. The company is launching a subscription service, Comet Plus, to share search revenue with media partners whose work powers its AI assistant and browser. A $42.5 million fund has been allocated for these payouts. This move comes amid lawsuits from major news outlets alleging Perplexity profits unfairly from their copyrighted material, potentially easing tensions and offering a new business model for the AI era.
