Perplexity has upgraded its Comet Assistant AI to operate across multiple browser tabs, giving it a longer attention span and the ability to multitask on complex, multi‑step tasks such as simultaneous price comparisons or data extraction. The new version adds a user‑control layer that prompts for permission before taking actions like clicking links or filling forms, enhancing trust and safety. Internal testing shows a 23% boost in successful task completion versus the prior release, with improved handling of branching instructions. The enhancement positions Comet as a more practical autonomous helper compared with rivals like Opera’s Neon and OpenAI’s Atlas AI browser.
