LinkedIn CEO says AI writing assistant is not as popular as expected | TechCrunch
Key takeaways:
- LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky says the platform’s AI writing assistant for polishing posts hasn’t been as popular as expected.
- He believes users are hesitant because LinkedIn serves as a professional resume, and mistakes or obviously AI-generated posts can hurt their image.
- Being criticized on LinkedIn carries more serious consequences than on casual platforms like X or TikTok, as it can affect career opportunities.
- Despite this, LinkedIn has seen a 6x increase in AI-related job listings and a 20x rise in users adding AI skills to their profiles over the past year.
- Roslansky personally uses AI to refine emails to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, saying he relies on Copilot to ensure he “sounds Satya-smart.”
