Perplexity Computer is a fully-hosted AI agent: threaded tasks, 100s of click-to-authenticate connectors, custom skills, and choice of frontier orchestrator model.
Perplexity open-sources Bumblebee (Apache 2.0) — a supply-chain security scanner explicitly targeting MCP config files, browser extensions, and packages in AI developer environments.
Frontier models hallucinate 4.6–6.1% of package names; 127 are identical across all five models. Perplexity's Bumblebee now targets MCP configs.
Perplexity now embedded in Microsoft Teams for research and doc creation — same week Agentforce enters Slack. AI colonizing existing collaboration UIs, not asking users to context-switch.
Anthropic reveals three Claude shapes simultaneously: standalone design surface, embedded model defaults in enterprise stacks, and managed agent infrastructure.
