  Then Google Ads will appear in some way in Perplexity (https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/why-we-re-experimenting-with-advertising https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/why-we-re-experimenting-w...) and Perplexity will use Google Search, and everybody is happy, except the regulators.

  I think it's fun that they always get in the media like this. They know how to play the game.
