Maybe it's just hype marketing, but I liked two things:

(1) The industry overview infographics. I'm not very familiar with the quickly-changing application layers of AI, so it's nice to see what are the noteworthy companies in the various slices (at least according to this particular VC), and explore some of them a bit more.

(2) I also think the retention point and related metrics are interesting, and maybe some of the metrics are hard-to-find / not very public (? not sure about that). It starkly paints the current challenge in the space.

Don't get me wrong, it's a great piece of marketing for them too.

And basically they're saying - if you can claim one of these little boxes on our infographics, and/or have solved the retention challenge, then we'll fall all over ourselves to invest in you (just like any other VC). So it's a great move on their part.
