Greylock has raised a new $1.5 billion fund.
The article notes that despite making its largest investment ever in Anthropic last year, the firm believes "many of the most important AI companies of the next decade haven't been founded yet," and will continue to increase its focus on first-round investments.
This news also reflects a shift in top-tier VCs' perspective on the AI sector: moving away from "chasing established giants" towards "competing for earlier entry points."
