The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

I think the part of the advice that's wrong is there aren't going to be any employees and there's going to, you know, companies aren't going to hire people and it's just going to be AI bots running everything.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

Like, by the way, like all the data kind of is going in the opposite direction of that.

The a16z Show

Like even like software engineering jobs are growing like very fast, despite what Dario says.

The a16z Show

And by the way, they're growing very fast at Anthropic.

The a16z Show

So it's like,

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

At what point do you call bullshit on that idea?

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

Yeah, so there will be a job.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

So Dario is very right on that.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

There will be a job change.

The a16z Show

So not the advice Dario gives, but how he gets written up.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

Yeah, so those tweets turn out to be, I would just say, like, very overblown and not kind of representative of what's likely going to happen.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

So, you know, don't.

The a16z Show

And in general, like, the doom and gloom, I just think gets overstated, you know, a lot on AI.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

By the way, the most dangerous thing, I think, on AI by far is that we kind of fail as a country.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

We get too scared.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

We overregulate.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

We do what Bernie Sanders recommends.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

And some of you are Bernie Sanders fans, but, like, we put a moratorium on data centers.

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

And then China wins, and...

The a16z Show
Ben Horowitz on Venture Capital and AI

Look, I think a world where, by the way, either China has like super intelligence and we don't, or we have it and they don't, is a much more dangerous world than having some kind of balance to the power.
