Yes, we are working with responsible VCs: endowments and large well-established companies in the field.
It's as if the whole industry is suffering from a high fever. This is purely my personal vibe, perhaps others might chime in with their subjective opinions.
- estearum 1mo agoAlso a founder raising currently and big +1. VCs are off their fucking rockers. Mad FOMO, listening to, believing, and benchmarking against actual liars (both obvious and non-obvious).
- claytongulick 1mo agoIs it different than the crypto days? I was part of a couple raises back then and I remember every founder was being forced to find some blockchain application, no matter how inappropriate, to get any attention from the fad-tech VCs
- estearum 1mo agoAI is sucking up orders of magnitude more capital than blockchain. So it's not like there is a segment of VCs who are fad-tech and obsessed with AI. The entire ecosystem is distorting around mega-companies and people who can believably say (usually by lying) that they will be a mega-company. And "mega-company" means something much much much bigger than it did even 5 years ago.
