90% of Venture Capital Funding Now Flowing Into Artificial Intelligence

Roughly 90% of venture capital is now flowing into AI, signaling a major shift in how startups are funded.

Investors are backing foundation models, infrastructure, and tooling, treating AI as a general-purpose technology rather than a short-term theme.

Major names like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Nvidia, Sequoia Capital, and Andreessen Horowitz are central to the boom.

The concentration of capital could reshape innovation finance, but it also raises bubble and misallocation risks if returns disappoint or other sectors get crowded out.
