As a sales engineer, when I'm not pushing random PRs for random demos or infra I'm building, I'm searching for people on LinkedIn in hopes of getting introductions. I tested a really basic LinkedIn search on myself.

Atlas confidently failed successfully [0]; Kagi [1] and Google [2] nailed it.

This is a perfect example as to why I don't think LLMs should replace search engines any time soon. Search engines help you find the truth. LLMs tell you the truth, even when it's not.

Chat seemed to find you just fine?

I mistakenly thought that Atlas was their official search engine offering separate from Chat, so I hit it with an old school search query instead of a natural language query I'd typically use with ChatGPT. Nonetheless, this is a good example of how much a well-constructed prompt can affect the final result!
