I wonder how many of these hype-chasing AI founders are NOT going to take the path of self-enrichment while capitulating their startups when they get exhausted of pretending to build something.

How do I get into this game? Take a bunch of VC money, pay myself a hefty salary, don't give a damn about my employees if the whole thing goes bust. Must be nice, not having principles.

Why not YC?

Best acceptance rate by YC seems to be Stanford, FAANG then YC.

That is indeed the song of venture capital.

I mean, if you qualify that question like that, then probably closer to 100%.

What would be more interesting to know, is how many AI founders starts out as "not hype-chasing", but end up self-enriching/capitulate their startups regardless, basically turning into it rather than starting out like that.

Not sure why would the AI part make the difference with other founders.
