LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky relies on artificial intelligence for nearly every important email he sends to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella , describing the technology as essential for high-stakes communication with his boss and other world leaders. Speaking at a fireside chat in LinkedIn 's San Francisco office on Tuesday, Roslansky said he uses Microsoft 's Copilot AI assistant to ensure he sounds "super smart" when corresponding with top executives. The CEO emphasised that almost every significant email he sends now involves AI assistance.
"A lot of the time when I'm sending a super high-stakes email to Satya Nadella or other CEOs or world leaders, you've got to make sure you sound super smart when you do that," Roslansky explained during the event.
LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky says AI acts as his writing partner
However, Roslansky clarified that he doesn't use AI to write entire emails from scratch. Instead, the technology serves as an interactive writing partner that guides him through a step-by-step process, asking questions to help determine the best approach for each response.
"Historically, there'd be a button that said, 'Draft the reply for me,'" Roslansky said. "The problem is that you're actually asking AI to make tons of decisions for you when you ask it to blindly reply to an email."
The LinkedIn chief described using AI as having "a second brain" that knows him "extremely well," making it invaluable for daily business communications.
Roslansky joins a growing number of executives adopting AI tools for workplace tasks. A June Gallup poll found that managers use AI at twice the rate of individual contributors, with leaders across tech and retail industries incorporating the technology into their daily communications and document review processes.
"I think I use it for every important email, without a doubt, on a daily basis," Roslansky said. "It's awesome."
