🔍 The AI Startup that creates jobs – not just replaces them
Silicon Valley is racing to build AI agents that automate human labor, putting millions of jobs at risk. But VC Mike Ghaffary of Burst Capital is on a mission to back startups that don’t just replace jobs—they create well-paying, middle-class jobs for people without AI or ML degrees.
He’s looking for companies that:
✅ Empower small business owners (like Owner or GlossGenius)
✅ Automate tasks while keeping jobs intact
✅ Use AI for vocational training in high-paying trades (electricians, plumbers, etc.)
💬 Ghaffary believes that without startups focusing on job creation, society will face massive underemployment. Could your startup be the solution?
