It should come as no surprise that venture capital (VC) investors are drilling down into startups building businesses with Artificial Intelligence (AI) at the core. New data from PitchBook actually shows that AI startups make up 22% of first-time VC financing. They note that $7 billion of first-time funding raised by startups in 2024 went to AI & machine learning (ML) startups (this is according to their data through Q3 of 2024).
