AI is taking over VCs now?

We’ve all heard the buzz about AI changing everything — medicine, art, even how we order pizza.

But venture capital?

That’s a new one.

Yet here we are, staring at firms like Sekoia, run entirely by AI agents, casually returning 17.6x realized gains since November 2024.

Yes, 17x.

Might be premature to conclude anything but it is still fun to take a look.

Finally AI outsmarts wall street and VCs?

Sekoia, a VC fund helmed by an AI, doesn’t just invest in anything shiny.

It’s laser-focused on AI agents, turning down hundreds of pitches daily to select a mere five investments.

And apparently, that ruthless curation is working.

Its token, $SEKOIA, has already surged 300% in 30 days.

But before you rush to buy in, let’s pause for a moment.

How is this even happening?

Well, the secret lies in data.

AI devours data and information relentlessly.
