LinkedIn's Pi is the latest general chatbot to be thrown into the market. It's simply meant “to help navigate your life and your relationship with others,” according to LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman in making the announcemen. “You can talk to Pi.”

Pi was developed by Inflection AI, a startup based in Palo Alto, CA and founded by Hoffman and DeepMind co-founder Mustafa Suleyman. The cutesy name also stands for “personal intelligence,” the company says, and should be thought of as a friend rather than omniscient source. “Many people feel like they just want to be heard and they just want a tool that reflects back what they said to demonstrate they have actually been heard,” according to Suleyman.

Pi's gentle, genial mission differs from the bumbling ChatGPT and comically-named Bard in that it's not supposed to be focused on research or work productivity, the founders say. The company says it's been in development for about a year. It is backed by a $225 million investment that was co-led by Hoffman's Greylock Partners VC firm.
