Refused to define plagiarism when asked, claimed facts cannot be owned

Oct 30, 2024

At TechCrunch Disrupt 2024 in October, Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas refused to say how Perplexity defines 'plagiarism' when directly asked. He stated 'No one has a copyright or ownership over truth or facts' and claimed that content publishers 'wish this technology didn't exist' and 'prefer to live in a world where publicly reported facts are owned by corporations.'
