Marc Andreessen is predicting that at least one job is safe from the rise of AI: his own.
Marc Andreessen says that VCs may escape the rising tide of AI automation. On a recent podcast, he said the relationship-driven art of venture capital may make it one of the last remaining fields that people are still doing when other jobs are automated.
The scumbag known as Marc Andreessen is a right-wing accelerationist. He and his cronies, including Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, want to destabilize and eventually destroy nation-states so that everyone lives in corporatocratic city-states. These are the people who think late stage capitalism is a step in the right direction.
Thank you. He gets more normalized any time someone talks about this asshole and doesn’t mention his extremist and wildly unpopular views. He is a terrible person, and not enough people know why.
This article does a pretty solid job of explaining how horrible he is, though I’m sure there are better ones.

Yep he looks at the world and sighs and thinks he could lead humanity into a shining future but for one thing: the legacy structures dragging it down. He really believes he has all the answers but we’re so bogged down by our establishments that we can’t follow him. He’d love to wipe the slate clean. I’d fucking love to be on a desert island with him and three other people trying to establish a colony. He’d be so goddamn useless.

This sums it up:
AI can’t tell you what’s true or not, so it can’t tell you when you’re wrong.
it can’t tell you when you’re wrong.
Which explains why narcissists seem so obsessed with it.
AI and LLM are not synonymous terms.

The term artificial intelligence is broader than many people realize. It doesn’t mean human-level consciousness or sci-fi-style general intelligence - that’s a specific subset called AGI (Artificial General Intelligence). In reality, AI refers to any system designed to perform tasks that would typically require human intelligence. That includes everything from playing chess to recognizing patterns, translating languages, or generating text.
Large language models fall well within this definition. They’re narrow AIs - highly specialized, not general - but still part of the broader AI category. When people say “this isn’t real AI,” they’re often working from a fictional or futuristic idea of what AI should be, rather than how the term has actually been used in computer science for decades.
I read the headline and had one thought: let me guess, his job?
This clown doesn’t even know his job is the easiest to automate without AI
I don’t know, asshole is a job that requires a lot of creativity in screwing people over.
This egghead (no he’s not smart he literally has an egg shaped head that’s why you only see his pictures framed a specific way) isn’t even that creative
I find it much easier to imagine an AI VC than an AI plumber.
It already exists. Quite literally there’s an AI VC based largely on him: https://www.theblock.co/post/323192/marc-andreesen-shoutouts-help-ai-powered-vc-fund-ai16z-to-nearly-100-million-market-cap
Challenge accepted.
My first thought was: let me guess, his own. Sure enough. This fucking asshole needs to go away. Every time he opens his mouth, shit comes out.
The problem is not people like him. The problem are newspapers publishing it as though it was important and people giving a shit about it as though he wasn’t a moron.
Are jackasses really a safe job? I know ChatGPT has been really happy and friendly recently, but it can still be a really effective jackass.
I knew he thought fat-headed VCs were more equal than the other animals.
So stupid.
How convenient.
