Who's to say they didn't? Perhaps the VCs who reached out were reaching out so that their technical experts could learn about the product. If you can't find information about a startup anywhere, asking them is a great way to find out. Yet the implied attitude of the article and some comments here is that when VCs are missing a critical piece of information, they should just give up, rather than reaching out to gather that critical information. Am I missing something? Reaching out to a startup to gather more information sounds like typical VC hustle. I think as people who know things about AI that other people don't, we need to be careful about using our knowledge to trick others and then feel smugly arrogant about their ignorance. My opinion, at least.
