Every week, I organize 400 to 700 links into roughly 60 categories as part of my ongoing effort to learn about AI. This is my personal notebook, which I enjoy sharing with friends… a hobby and a labor of love, rather than a commercial publication or product.

If you arrived here through a search or shared link, this page collects the links I found for Perplexity for the week ending August 7, 2026.

As part of my learning process, I like to automate the category covers. It gives me a chance to learn Python and APIs.

This week’s cover prompt was written using Claude Opus 4.7, and the image was generated using Gemini 3.1 Flash Image Preview.

Category Cover Image Prompt: A weathered open book laid face-up on a flat stone at the edge of a mirror-still marsh pond at night, its pale blank pages catching soft starlight, surrounded by muted reeds and slate grasses, under a vast deep indigo sky full of stars perfectly reflected in the dark water, painterly nocturne in the style of American Tonalism and Luminism, low horizon, generous negative space in the upper sky, thin mist drifting over the water, a single faint warm glow on the distant horizon, contemplative and hushed.

Summary by Claude Sonnet 5.5 based on this week’s links:

Perplexity added GPT 5.6 Terra and Luna to Perplexity Computer. Terra becomes the default model for all Computer subagents and is also available as an orchestrator. Luna will be the primary model for scheduled automations.

Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas said the company tested Terra extensively and found it capable and cost-effective, in line with Computer's goal of maximum intelligence for minimum cost through multi-model orchestration.

This summary was generated by Claude Sonnet 5.5 to help you explore the links below. Rest assured, I select, organize, and check the links by hand in Google Sheets, and write the introduction and personal commentary in The Main Newsletters myself each week as a labor of love.

Perplexity Computer’s goal is to provide the maximum intelligence for minimum cost with multi model orchestration. We’ve tested GPT 5.6 Terra extensively and found it to be a pretty good model: capable and cost-effective at the same time. We’re making it the default for all”
