Send a daily news brief and turn tabs into slides
Use an AI browser to collect top stories, email a short digest, and turn open sources into a cited slide deck.
- What they did
- A writer used Perplexity Comet, the company’s AI browser, to scan major outlets for the day’s AI coverage, choose five leading stories, and draft a brief email. The same tool was also given a set of tagged tabs, articles, and reports, then asked to combine them into a Google Slides deck with headings, citations, and a short executive overview.
- How it went
- The email brief was sent successfully, which a regular chatbot would not have handled on its own. The slide deck covered part of the work, but its design was weak, and no timing details were provided.
- Tips
- Keep requests short and narrow. Longer, chained tasks may stall before finishing, and this browser can take longer than doing the work manually.
