Aravind Srinivas claims ‘After Perplexity Labs, AI's IPO drafting accuracy rises to 98-99%'
Published 8 Jun 2025, 05:42 AM IST Taking the cue from Goldman Sachs' CEO David Solomon's statement that 'AI can write 95% of an IPO prospectus accurately', Perplexity boss Aravind Srinivas made an even bolder assertion — after Perplexity Labs, he believes that the probability of AI writing an IPO prospectus accurately has increased to 98-99%. Earlier this year, Solomon, while at the Cisco AI Summit in California, claimed that AI can write 95% of an IPO prospectus accurately and humans are required for the last 5% of the work, a Financial Times report had pointed out. Discussing the process of drafting an initial registration prospectus for an IPO, known as the S1, Solomon noted that while a team of six people can complete it in around two weeks, AI can now accomplish the same task 'within minutes.' 'The work of drafting an S1 might have taken a six-person team two weeks to complete, but it can now be 95 per cent done by AI in minutes. The last 5 per cent now matters because the rest is now a commodity,' he said. Goldman Sachs has 11,000 engineers among its 46,000 employees, who Solomon said are 'using AI to help draft public filing documents', the FT report added.

China says willing to improve communication with countries on rare earth controls
TIL Creatives China says willing to improve communication with countries on rare earth controls China's commerce ministry said on Saturday that it has approved a certain number of compliant rare earth export applications and will continue to refine its examination and approval process. The ministry also expressed willingness to enhance communication with other countries over export controls, according to a statement on its website, Reuters reported. The announcement comes at a time when Indian automakers are facing worsening shortages of rare earth magnets, critical components for electric vehicles (EVs) and other high-tech industries. According to Bloomberg, Beijing has turned down at least two recent applications for India-bound shipments of rare earth magnets, raising fears of an imminent disruption in Indian automobile production. Industry and government officials told Bloomberg that while shipments to the German and U.S. units of a global firm were cleared, the same request to its Indian arm was rejected. Since April 4—when China began enforcing tighter curbs on exports of seven rare earth elements—supplies to Indian auto parts manufacturers have been stuck at Chinese new controls require importers to certify that the magnets will not be used for defense purposes or re-exported to the U.S. The new end-user certification process can take at least 45 days and is now facing a global per the Bloomberg report, at least 30 Indian applications endorsed by the Indian government are still awaiting Chinese approval, while over 10 applications from other countries have reportedly been cleared. According to a May 28 presentation by the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), no Indian applications have received final approval from China's commerce ministry despite many having secured embassy endorsements. 'Even if one magnetised part is missing, the vehicle cannot be built,' SIAM warned in the presentation, adding that some Indian firms may consider shifting operations to China if the supply crunch continues. The squeeze has heightened concern among Indian automakers. 'The rare earth situation is a very difficult one,' Bajaj Auto's Executive Director Rakesh Sharma told analysts. 'Supplies and stocks are getting depleted as we speak, and if there's no relief in shipments, production will be seriously impaired in July.'To address the growing crisis, a delegation of Indian businesses is planning to visit Chinese counterparts this month with help from the Indian Embassy in Beijing. The embassy has reached out to China's commerce ministry, seeking expedited clearance of pending applications.A meeting was recently held at the Indian Prime Minister's Office to discuss options for resolving the impasse. Indian officials have advised manufacturers to explore alternative supply chains and consider local refining capacities—though such solutions are long-term in the Indian government is also encouraging firms to explore ferrite magnets or magnet-free designs, though these come with compromises in cost and performance. As a result, some companies are considering stop-gap measures such as importing motors or shifting production to fossil-fuel-powered vehicles. With inputs from agencies
