Last week was huge for the world of AI. We saw the launch of Grok 4 and Perplexity Comet. One is bringing a new level of intelligence to AI, while the other is completely changing how we use the internet.
Grok
Grok 4 is here, and it’s claiming to be the smartest AI model in the world. What makes it special is its brainpower and its incredible ability to solve difficult problems.
Grok 4 comes in two versions:
- Grok 4: The standard version with super-intelligence.
- Grok 4 Heavy: A more powerful version that uses multiple AI agents to work together on a single task.

Perplexity Comet
Perplexity has launched its own web browser called Comet. While it’s still in an invite-only phase, it’s already clear that it’s changing the Browse game.
Think of it as a browser with a smart assistant built-in. It can do everyday tasks for you, like booking tickets or ordering groceries, right from the browser. It also solves many privacy worries by handling your data locally on your device.

Why these are important?
Even though these are new products, they are a massive step up from what we have today. Here’s why you should pay attention:
- Pushes the Competition: These launches will force other big players to release better and more competitive products.
- Changes Browse Forever: Comet is leading the charge in revolutionizing the browser. Soon, all browsers might have AI agents built-in.
- A Step Towards AGI: With its incredible intelligence, Grok has unlocked new possibilities that get us closer to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).
- Websites Will Adapt: As more people use AI-powered browsers, websites will need to change to be more friendly for these AI agents.
With Grok 4’s powerful brain and Comet’s smart Browse, the next era of AI isn’t just coming, it’s already here.
