EndeavorsAI | Foundry Group - Experience Still Wins

What happens when long-term capital meets AI? In this episode of the Endeavors AI Podcast, Collin McKee sits down with Seth Levine, Co-Founder of Foundry Group, for a grounded, honest conversation about capital evolution, judgment, and where AI truly belongs in modern investing. This isn’t an episode about tools or trends. It’s about experience, patience, and decision-making in a world where automation is accelerating everything—and judgment matters more than ever. Seth shares: How Foundry Group was intentionally built around long-term thinking, shared ownership, and firm-level accountability What venture capital has actually changed—and what hasn’t—over multiple market cycles Why AI creates leverage in preparation, synthesis, and workflow—but fails when asked to replace human judgment How operators and investors should think about “buying back time” without outsourcing responsibility Why generic outreach (even AI-generated) fails—and how thoughtfulness still wins in a high-automation world The conversation also explores Seth’s new book, Capital Evolution, which examines the future of capitalism, the role of business in society, and why shareholder-only thinking is no longer sufficient. 🧠 Key Themes Capital evolution vs. capital trends AI as infrastructure, not a decision-maker Judgment, experience, and pattern recognition Venture capital beyond Silicon Valley Trust, values, and long-term firm building ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 – Intro: Why this conversation matters 01:30 – Foundry Group’s origin and philosophy 05:30 – How venture capital has (and hasn’t) changed 07:30 – Who becomes a VC now—and why it matters 11:00 – Capital Evolution & the future of capitalism 16:00 – Where AI actually buys back time 21:00 – Why AI can’t replace judgment 24:00 – Advice for founders reaching out today 27:00 – Closing & where to learn more 📘 Learn More Foundry Group: https://foundry.vc Capital Evolution: https://thecapitalevolution.com About Endeavors AI Endeavors AI works with operators, investors, and leadership teams to buy back time using practical AI workflows, automations, and agents—so humans can focus on judgment, strategy, and decisions that truly require experience.
