You're now plugged in to the Delphi podcast. Everyone, welcome back to the podcast. I'm Tommy, one of the founding partners of Delphi Ventures. We are leading a lot of AI efforts at Delphi across our fund, direct investments, fund investments, and we came across Mike from introduction from Vishal, close friend of mine, who runs mythos. Vc, one of the smartest guys I know.
He's great.
He's awesome. Big fan. And found you, Mike, and you changed my mind on a bunch of things on
the call and figured we
should do a podcast on AI, so here we are.
Okay, fun. Let's get into it.
So tell me a little bit, tell us a little bit about Mike Vork.
Yeah, let's see. So I went to school in DC thinking I might be a policy person, but got involved in startups, and that was way more fun. So I moved to San Francisco, worked on a couple startups in SF around 2011, 2012, And then I got startup ADD, so I founded a VC firm so I could work on a dozen or a couple dozen things at the same time, and ran that fund for two or three years. And then ended up joining a much bigger fund called GPV, based in San Francisco, manages a couple billion dollars now, and was a partner there up until 2022. So small fund to big fund. Small fund to big fund, and yeah,
the shakers doing the big deals.
