Generationship learned that Yann LeCun raised $1.03B to build AI that is explicitly not an LLM.

Generationship is an early-stage venture fund investing in technical female founders building software infrastructure for the AI platform shift. We started from a contrarian conviction: that the venture market has systematically underpriced technical female founders in software infrastructure. Fund I validated the thesis — closing oversubscribed, ahead of schedule, with a marked-up portfolio. Our portfolio spans AI infrastructure, developer tooling, data platforms, and agentic systems. We back founders who are not riding the AI wave — they are building the infrastructure the wave runs on. Generationship is led by Rachel Chalmers and Michelle Yi, whose partnership combines deep roots in enterprise software and infrastructure with a sourcing network built over decades in the developer community.
