Perplexity Ordered to Stop Deploying Shopping AI Agents on Amazon: Report
Amazon, on Monday, won a court order blocking Perplexity from deploying its artificial intelligence (AI) shopping agents on its e-commerce platform. The decision was given by a California federal judge, who found that the Seattle-based tech giant had strong evidence of unauthorised access by Perplexity’s bots. With this, Amazon has received preliminary injunctive relief, which will take effect in seven days.
