Those numbers are hilarious. I can see an associate getting that many decks a week, then culling them down to 1 to 3 for the next guy up the chain. But there will be 3 to 12 associates.
Then the number of deals is also hilarious. These people don't have unlimited money, even in the good old days, you'd be lucky to be doing a deal a week out of the pool the associates approved.
So basically there are a hundred times as many decks as what the OP thinks there are for each deal. And the successful ones aren't open AI, the majority of the time a successful exit is getting sold for $10m to the incumbents in the field.
