Adoption of AI and Tech in PE/Growth/VC. Why so slow…?

Former/Current PE, Growth & VC investors: what do you think are the reasons why an industry that invests so much behind software and tech, is such a laggard in its adoption? Do you there’s an underlying willingness to introduce technology at various stages in the investment lifecycle more (from initial screening through portfolio mgmt)? Why / why not?
