💸 Should You Invest in AI Startups in 2024? Thinking of backing the next big thing in AI? This article by Dmitry Smirnov of Flint Capital dives into the current climate and offers a VC's perspective. ✅ Key takeaways: - AI investment is still hot, with exciting developments across various industries. - Regulations are on the horizon, potentially impacting valuations. ⚖️ 💡 Intriguing, but what are the potential blind spots? - Beyond Regulations: While navigating regulations is crucial, the article doesn't delve into other potential risks.
