Join the Polsky Center for an engaging fireside chat with Aravind Srinivas, CEO and Cofounder of Perplexity AI, one of the most influential startups shaping the future of generative AI.

In this conversation, Aravind will share insights from his journey—spanning research roles at OpenAI, Google, and DeepMind to launching Perplexity, an “answer engine” redefining how people access, evaluate, and trust information online. The dialogue will explore the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence, its implications for technology and society, and what lies ahead as AI tools transform the way we learn, work, and create.

This discussion will be moderated by Sanjog Misra, Charles H. Kellstadt Distinguished Service Professor of Marketing and Applied AI.
