Perplexity AI rolls out Perplexity Labs to write reports, spreadsheets and build apps
'Often performing 10 minutes or more of self-supervised work, Perplexity Labs use a suite of tools like deep web browsing, code execution, and chart and image creation to turn your ideas and to-do's into work that's been done,' a blog post announcing the news said.
The files that are created by the tool are organised in a separate 'Assets' tab to be viewed and downloaded. It can also help build and deploy interactive web apps directly under an 'App' tab.
Perplexity has said that the tool will soon be coming to their apps for Mac and Windows.
Earlier this year, the Aravind Srinivas-led company unveiled a deep research tool to compete with OpenAI and Google while also previewing a web browser called Comet.

JPMorgan starts research coverage of top private firms like OpenAI
JPMorgan Chase has begun publishing research notes on prominent private companies transforming industries, a person familiar with the matter told Reuters on Friday. With many industry-leading private companies delaying public listings, they are attracting a growing share of investor capital, prompting institutional investors to track them more closely at earlier stages. Companies such as ChatGPT-maker OpenAI, Elon Musk's SpaceX and TikTok-parent Bytedance now hold valuations that rival or surpass several major S&P 500 firms, blurring the distinction between public and private market influence. The largest US lender released its first report on OpenAI, the company that spurred Wall Street's AI gold rush, according to an internal memo seen by Reuters. Unlike traditional research notes, these brokerage reports will not feature estimates, price targets or ratings, Hussein Malik, head of global research said in the memo, which highlighted AI and software as core areas for private company coverage. "Private companies are becoming increasingly relevant to various industries, especially in the new economy space," Malik said. "The goal of this offering is to support our investor clients by providing structured information and tracking, offering deeper insights into key disruptors and their impact on the sectors in which they operate." Institutional investors are increasingly focused on private company research and investment opportunities as these firms develop technologies that influence mature sectors, the source added. Nearly 1,500 private startups have achieved unicorn status, having raised funding at valuations above $1 billion, according to PitchBook's tracker. North America leads globally with over 1,000 unicorns, collectively valued at nearly $4 trillion. As private companies play a growing role in transforming legacy industries, Wall Street is adjusting to rising demand for insights into these influential firms, reflecting a shift in how market power is assessed.

CBI court stays loan fraud case proceedings against Choksi till August 8
A special CBI court here on Friday stayed proceedings against diamantaire Mehul Choksi till August 8 in the ₹55 crore Canara Bank-led consortium loan fraud case. A magistrate court, in April, took cognizance of a chargesheet filed by Central Bureau of Investigation in the case and had issued summons to the accused, including Choksi and two former employees of Gitanjali group Vipul Chitalia and Aniyath Nair. However, their lawyers Vijay Agarwal, Rahul Agarwal and Jasmin Purani on Friday filed a revision application against the magistrate's order before the special CBI court claiming it was passed in "a mechanical manner without application of mind". The order summoning the accused has been passed with lightning speed on the same day of filing of chargesheet, without even perusing it, they claimed and sought interim relief until their plea is decided. Special Judge J P Darekar, presiding over the matter, found that the magistrate court's order does not reflect any opinion formed by it on the basis of the material in the chargesheet. It held that reasons are necessary not only for litigants but also for superior courts to know the thought process of the trial court. "The court expects at least some brief outline of the reasons which leads the trial court to form an opinion to issue summons in the case," the special judge noted. Therefore, there is prima facie error of giving no reasons in support of the order of issuance of process, the special judge said. It then stayed the magistrate court's proceeding till August 8, the next date of hearing. The court also issued notice to the CBI seeking its say in the plea. As per the CBI, Canara Bank and Bank of Maharashtra had sanctioned ₹30 crore and ₹25 crore, respectively, as working capital facilities under a consortium agreement to Bezel Jewellery. The loan was granted for the manufacturing and sale of gold and diamond-studded jewellery, but the company allegedly did not use it for the intended purposes, according to the CBI. The company did not repay the loan, causing a loss of ₹55.27 crore to the consortium, as per the agency. Choksi and his nephew Nirav Modi are prime accused in the ₹13,500-crore PNB 'scam'. While Choksi is fighting for bail in a court in Belgium, Nirav Modi has been in jail in London since 2019.
