I'm curious to know what you are implying with this. Are there commercially relevant startups you know using other "AI"? I'd definitely be interested in a symbolic reasoning startup or some other more obscure AI idea, but I suspect there are vanishingly few so it's unlikely to come up in the OP's job hunt

Not really symbolic reasoning. I'm thinking more along the line of classic ML techniques like Random Forest/GLMs have long been successfully applied to business problems.
