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.
They don’t have to replace themselves. If LLMs can do the job (which is an open question) it will be outsiders who use LLMs to replace them.
The outsiders are still VC owners. Andressen’s company might be put out of business by another VC firm that uses LLM, but that happened all the time long before AI.
