You Don't Need to Say 'AI' Anymore
The two most common letters on LinkedIn have become an assumption, not a differentiator. Lead with the problem you solve instead.
Maybe I'm late on this, but I realized recently we are already at the point where you don't need to even mention the two most commonly used letters on LinkedIn anymore. It's already an assumption that it's baked into what you're doing if it should be there.
OR, it's blindingly obvious to most people it's being used in places it shouldn't be.
We don't lead with the fact that a SaaS product has a database or runs in the cloud, it's just an assumption. We might tell people if it doesn't for some compelling reason.
Just say what problem you're solving or what you're doing for someone else and what makes you different.
