Perplexity’s Personal Computer turns Windows PCs into AI agents

Perplexity has expanded its agentic Personal Computer tool to Windows, transforming PCs into locally run AI systems. Similar to the Mac version released in April, this general-purpose digital worker accesses local files and apps to execute tasks. This launch intensifies the competition for desktop dominance and could redefine enterprise workflows by shifting compute demand locally, thereby challenging existing cloud and decentralized networks through the integration of agentic capabilities directly into the Windows operating system.
