LinkedIn's new AI search lets you find people by typing
LinkedIn just dropped a new AI-powered search tool for premium users in the US.
Now, you can type things like "Find me marketing pros with startup experience" and get matched with the right people—no more guessing keywords.
A global rollout is coming soon.
How to use the new feature
This feature is all about making networking easier and more precise.
Just hit the "I'm looking for..." prompt in the search bar, describe who you need, and LinkedIn's AI does the rest—great for finding niche connections or job leads without endless scrolling.
AI magic at work
Using natural language processing and generative AI, LinkedIn matches your requests to relevant profiles—even if you don't know exact job titles.
It also suggests ways to refine your search so you find exactly who you're after.
Is LinkedIn the next big thing in search?
While Google and Bing use AI too, many believe LinkedIn's large professional network may offer advantages for finding people for jobs or collaborations.
If building your network is important, this update is designed to help streamline the process.
