Which Pods are Crushing it in AI?

I am wondering which MM pods are crushing it in the AI space right now. Obviously, I'd assume it is the pods that have been doing well in tech for years now, but does anyone know of any groups specifically that are doing really well in this space? 
My guess is that the big name pods are on top right now (Throughline, ES's new team at P72, and tech teams at Surveyor). 

Does anyone know any other big names or groups in the MM space that are on the forefront of this revolution?
