FYI: Aravind Srinivas (@AravSrinivas) says there’s a 1-person company spending **~$1M/year** on Perplexity
“There’s 1 solopreneur, literally a one-person company, spending upwards of a million dollars a year on our product.”
“He’s making $3 million a year by automating newsletters for others.”
NEW: I sat down w/ Perplexity Founder & CEO Aravind Srinivas (@AravSrinivas) on why AI-native SMBs could drive the next American millionaire economic boom.
@perplexity_ai, valued at ~$20B with ~$2B in reported funding, $750M in annualized revenue as of August, seeing 5x YoY revenue growth as it expands from search into autonomous agents.
One example Aravind shared is a single-person company generating $3M in annual revenue while spending over $1M a year on Perplexity Computer.
His thesis is that AI could fundamentally change the economics of building a business. Smaller teams, less capital, higher productivity, & entirely new business models.
At the infrastructure layer, Aravind sees a shift toward local & hybrid inference, with AI agents operating across personal devices and the cloud. As context windows expand and workloads become more personalized, local compute becomes increasingly cost-competitive, while offering greater privacy, control & data sovereignty.
We cover:
› Why SMBs could become a major driver of US GDP growth
› The shift from AI models to agents & recursive economics
› Why Perplexity is betting on your Mac instead of building data centers
› NVIDIA, Apple Silicon, local inference & sovereign AI
› Why writing code is no longer the bottleneck, but problem-solving is

JAPAN IS SHRINKING
In 1949, Japan welcomed 2.7 million babies into the world.
In 2025, Japan’s births are set to fall below 670,000, the lowest since 1899.
The government had forecasts for this.
Pessimistic ones. But they didn’t expect to hit 670,000 until 2041.
We’re sixteen years ahead of schedule!
The decline is accelerating faster than the worst-case models.
Japan peaked at 128.5 million in 2008.
By 2100, half will be gone…
