Zerodha founder Nithin Kamath has a message for startup founders trying to catch investors' attention: simply saying a product uses artificial intelligence is no longer enough. Kamath said AI has become so common in the startup ecosystem that putting it at the centre of an investment pitch could actually make investors lose interest.
His comments came in a post on X, where he criticised the growing number of startup pitch decks that open with claims about using AI. Kamath said founders need to show what makes their product different instead of treating AI itself as a selling point.
