Abstract

While artificial intelligence (AI) is a hot topic in public debate and academic discourse, most research is conceptual with only few insights into how AI is used in entrepreneurship practice. This study explores empirically how and with what effect early-stage IT startups utilize AI. Following a mixed-method approach, we first analyze qualitatively how AI-tools are used, indicating that AI is mainly employed to streamline processes, saving time and resources. While AI is used broadly, it has not replaced human agency. In a subsequent quantitative study, using Crunchbase and LinkedIn data, we analyze the efficiency of startups before and after the introduction of ChatGPT-3. This study suggests that startups using AI require fewer employees and achieve critical milestones faster, specifically concerning their first funding round.
