Marc Andreessen says we’re in a ‘freeze-frame moment’ with A.I.–and has advice for young people
Andreessen argues that thanks to A.I., \”productivity growth throughout the economy will accelerate dramatically, driving economic growth, creation of new industries, creation of new jobs, and wage growth, and resulting in a new era of heightened material prosperity across the planet.\”
This week, on the Lex Fridman Podcast, he offered advice to young people who want to stand out in what he describes in this \”freeze-frame moment\” with A.I.–where tools like ChatGPT and GPT-4 are suddenly available and \”everybody is kind of staring at them wondering what to do.\”
He noted that we’re now living in a world where vast amounts of information are at our fingertips and, with A.I. tools, \”your ability both to learn and to produce\” is dramatically higher than in the past. Such tools should allow for more \”hyper-productive people\” to emerge, he said. For example, there’s no reason authors and musicians couldn’t churn out far more books or songs than was customary in the past.
