Sometimes, a brief explanation can help confirm that your research is going in the right direction. So here goes:

What is AI?

AI, or artificial intelligence, is a branch of computer science focused on creating systems that can perform tasks requiring human-like intelligence, including learning from data, recognising patterns, making decisions, and solving problems autonomously.

An example of an AI startup is DeepMind Technologies, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc. (Google's parent company). DeepMind is known for developing AI technologies such as AlphaGo, which defeated world champion Go player Lee Sedol in 2016, showcasing the capabilities of AI in strategic decision-making and complex problem-solving.

Understanding AI Investors

When exploring AI funding, it's crucial to distinguish between AI angel investors and AI venture capitalists (VCs).

AI angels are typically individual investors who provide early-stage funding, leveraging their personal wealth and industry expertise to support emerging AI startups. In contrast, AI VCs represent structured venture capital firms that manage pooled investment funds from various sources, usually targeting growth-stage AI companies with established market presence.
