The Funding Ecosystem in India is nothing but a circus ๐๐คก These days, if you want funding, just do one thingโslap AI on everything. No, seriously. The only three types of startups getting funding are: ๐ Startups that use the word AI as a gimmick (even if itโs just an Excel macro) ๐ Tech startups that accidentally have one AI feature (like an automated email reply) ๐ Startups that have a .ai domain (because, obviously, that's what makes it AI-driven ๐) Bonus points if your pitch deck has ๐ ๐ Revolutionizing (random industry) with AI! (it's actually a normal chatgpt API integration) Meanwhile, the actual AI startups are lost in the noise. The ones solving real problems with cutting-edge models and researchโare sitting in a corner, holding their .club and .io domains, wondering why VCs only want "AI-powered chai delivery." Moral of the story? You don't need AI But AI attached to your name :)
