How LinkedIn released new ChatGPT-based AI tools in just 3 months

Join top executives in San Francisco on July 11-12, to hear how leaders are integrating and optimizing AI investments for success. The sprint to develop LinkedIn's recently released generative AI tools took only three months, Ya Xu, VP of engineering and head of data and artificial intelligence (AI), told VentureBeat in an interview. The timeline, she said, was "unprecedented" for a large company like LinkedIn, given the many changes engineering and product teams implemented based on OpenAI's latest GPT models, including ChatGPT and GPT-4, as well as some open-source models. These include generative AI-powered collaborative articles, job descriptions and personalized writing suggestions for LinkedIn profiles. For example, she explained, her teams were able in just one month to generate job descriptions automatically and serve live traffic.
