Venture capital: How to cut through the AI 'theater'

In this article:

Headline venture partner Kamran Ansari joins Asking For A Trend to give insight into the state of the venture capital landscape as the AI craze continues to ripple across markets.

Kamran argues that no matter the situation, the key concern in venture capital is who to trust: "The best founders are figure outers. They're the kind of people that are going to hit stumbling blocks because those are inevitable, right? Every startup, every company, whether it's seed stage, whether it's series D or E or public company runs into problems. You're going to have problems with people, with funding, with strategy, with competitors. And the best founders are the ones that figure out a way forward. They don't get discouraged. They're always trying to move ahead and can pivot and move quickly. And that ultimately is kind of a DNA thing."
