Perplexity Appeals Amazon Shopping Agent Ban

Perplexity has filed an appeal in federal court to overturn an injunction preventing its AI shopping agent, Comet, from accessing Amazon. The company argues that its AI's actions are analogous to a human user browsing the e-commerce giant's website. This legal challenge centers on whether AI agents should have the same access rights as human consumers to online platforms for shopping purposes. The outcome could set a precedent for how AI interacts with major online retailers.
