Roundtable Recap: March 12 – Would Your Startup Survive the AI Era?

During this week’s 1Mby1M Mentoring Roundtable, we explored a question that is increasingly dominating venture capital discussions: What happens if AI automates your entire industry?

Today, venture investors are evaluating startups through the lens of AI-driven disruption risk. If artificial intelligence has the potential to automate a sector completely within the next decade, VCs become extremely cautious about investing. Venture capital firms must believe a startup can grow exponentially for 7–10 years. If the underlying industry itself could disappear or be radically transformed by AI within that window, investors may decide the risk is too high.
