Apple Considers Bidding for Perplexity AI

Apple is considering a potential bid to acquire Perplexity AI, a leading AI startup, amid ongoing discussions among executives. The move could be influenced by the outcome of the Google antitrust trial, and if successful, would be Apple's largest acquisition to date. Alternatively, Apple might partner with Perplexity for AI integration into its products, though a deal could be complicated by Perplexity's existing negotiations with Samsung.
