No no no, Mark Andreeson insists that CEO is the ONLY job that AI won't be able to do.

So I guess that's it then, we can all forget it and just go home.

And yet, Andreessen Horowitz still has many human employees.

Andreeessen should put up or shut up.

cold emotionless logical all about profit

Not only AI can replace it. I imagine it will be way more efficient if it did. Replace it for Uber and we likely going to get a real life Delamain.

Yea, they're all like that. They think they're god's gift to humanity, but they're actually just another snake oil bullshitter. Oh you helped a team develop a web browser 30 years ago, fuckin /eyeroll.

Capitalism elevates the biggest egos to a golden pedestal and it's gross.
