Leo Polovets(@lpolovets):I now ignore all inbound decks & pitches that are 90+% AI. Initially I was open-minded, but as the aphorism goes: how you do anything is how you do everything. If someone is sloppy or lazy with a high leverage fundraise, it's hard to build conviction on execution in other areas.
