Your optimism is appreciated, but that's not how the fund world works.
Institutional investors need 2 years of track record from a quant fund
before they'll really take it seriously.    A fund started with a few
million dollars, with a good track record, can get up to $50M or $100M in
its first year if all goes well.  And like any other startup, an AI based
investment management firm has to reach a certain level of maturity before
it's possible for a co-founder to turn their equity stake into cash.   Like
many things, these processes are fast on the cosmic time scale but not all
that fast in the scope of a person's everyday life !!
