Just got fired by my board - exit opps?

Hey guys I've been building in the VC space for years but just faced a major roadblock. My board is replacing me  as CEO and I'm at a cross roads. I thought I could accelerate through this rough patch and whistle past the graveyard here but it seems they found a way to replace me with AI. I want to get back in the arena. Anyone know if Founder's Fund is hiring or if I should build a new startup? Will this background be valued or will this be a black mark on my profile?

Update: found a new job! An old coworker hooked me up just in time for me to not be the unemployed uncle at Thanksgiving. Feeling blessed. Siri play arms wide open rn
