Marc Andreessen—the “MarcGPT” behind a16z and the first popular web browser—loves AI so much he calls it “our Philosopher’s Stone” and has plowed cash into OpenAI and Elon Musk’s xAI. He sees it as a universal problem-solver that’ll eventually do every job on Earth.
But there’s one role he insists AI will never master: venture capitalist. On the latest a16z podcast, he argued that when machines handle everything else, VC will remain “quite literally timeless”—the last field where humans still call the shots.
