Seed-stage AI applications (for me *personally*; as a firm, we are far broader). As a firm, we have a fairly strong interest in highly technical founders (75% of our companies have at least 1 PhD founder) and founders who are able to seamlessly operate between the US and China (65% of our companies have at least 1 Chinese founder). Neither of these interests are "filters", though (ie., it is not required).
Not Interested In
As a firm, we do not invest in any B2C or crypto businesses. We also tend to avoid anything that has not product or data advantage (ie., businesses that are purely business model innovations or marketing/ sales/ execution driven).
