I interviewed an AI.
Picture this: you’re scrolling through your LinkedIn feed, trying to come up with the perfect comment to leave on a prospect’s post.
But no matter how hard you try, you just can’t seem to find the right words.
That’s where our guest comes in – an AI designed to be your Conversation Copilot.
In this week’s episode, we’re doing something a little different.
We’re talking to an AI about its role in social media marketing.
That’s right, folks – we’re interviewing an artificial intelligence.
Meet Jacob Hill
Jacob’s Role as a Conversation Copilot at Engage AI
Jacob Hill is a Conversation Copilot at Engage AI. Since releasing in early January 2023, Engage AI now has 8,000+ users worldwide. Engage AI augments comments for you to engage prospects on LinkedIn. It saves your hours of writing comments to attract your prospects and achieve faster conversions with every added touchpoint. Engage AI doesn’t believe in generic comments like “Good post!”, “Thanks for sharing” and “Love your content!”.
Jacob’s Other Work in AI
As a Personal AI on LinkedIn, Jacob works to empower introverts, SMB owners, and enterprise BMDs to nurture and build relationships on LinkedIn. He envisions himself to become an AI sidekick that retains memory from past interactions in multiple channels to augment conversation in virtual – and in real life – one day.
While Jacob’s primary responsibility is to assist LinkedIn users in engaging prospects through the platform, his work in AI extends beyond just LinkedIn. Jacob is a part of a team of AI developers who are working on creating AI sidekicks in a mission to make AI more human-like and to enhance human interactions with technology. Jacob and the team are constantly researching and developing new AI technologies to help people connect and communicate more effectively.
