While I agree with some of the statements made in the article, I don't think everything is doom and gloom. There is still a place for early-stage VC for founders looking to scale.

While I agree that AI is making it easier to launch things, there are so many other ancillary things that require human capital that AI still hasn't solved for, and I don't see that changing in the next 10-15 years. Call me a boomer, but there are a lot of companies that need to grow, and VC funding is a great solution for them.

I will say, however, seeing larger funds change to evergreen funds or even to a more PE model should make everyone pay attention. Adapt or die, right?
