"Marc Andreessen does not need an introduction in this publication, but the position does. The Defense Policy Board is not a ceremonial body.
It advises the defence secretary and the Pentagon’s policy chief on the questions that shape which technologies the military buys, which doctrines it adopts, and which companies it commits to for the next decade of procurement.
It is, in other words, one of the rooms where the direction gets set. And Andreessen arrives in that room with a great deal already invested in where it points.
The positions are not small. Andreessen Horowitz, the firm he co-founded, holds stakes in Anduril, Skydio, Shield AI, Saronic, and Flock Safety, a roster of companies whose fortunes track closely with the regulatory and procurement choices the Pentagon makes.
The best-known of them is Anduril, which a16z helped take to a $61bn valuation in a $5bn round, after the US Army handed the company a $20bn enterprise agreement in March.
This is not a portfolio that happens to sit near defence policy, it overlaps with it almost completely."

Un hacker retourne 573 comptes TikTok d'a16z contre leur créateur. Il pirate Doublespeed, startup qui génère des influenceurs IA, et tente de faire publier "a16z est l'antéchrist" par ses propres bots.
L'ironie révèle l'ampleur industrielle : 573 comptes, 413 téléphones, désinformation automatisée à l'échelle. Quand l'arme se retourne contre l'armurier.

"Marc Andreessen, a philosophical zombie, can be easily replaced with #AI. I bet that’s great news for #a16z’s investors, since it means Andreessen no longer must be paid — and it frees him up to be the subject of some philosophy experiments."
Yeah, I've suspected this about the ultra-rich for some time now. Great article!

I would like to replace the front door - hopefully it's a revolving door, so the aesthetics don't change so much - of the YCombinator offices with an enormous 10-stacked-blades MixMaster.
It seems that the complete corruption of my industry might have been prevented if I'd done this years ago, and anyone trying to go in or out of that place is not going to be a loss to society anyways.
If I like the results, we can start on the others.

"The firm’s ascent in Washington has been fueled by massive influence spending, co-founder Marc Andreessen’s close ties to Trump, and a network of former firm partners working in key administration positions. It’s also benefited from savvy casting of its portfolio of insurgent startups as exemplars of the kind of free-market innovation celebrated by Republican Washington’s reigning conservative ideology.
Andreessen Horowitz’s bold, maximalist approach and deregulatory zeal have buttressed the administration’s view that most government-imposed guardrails on AI endanger US competitiveness in a fast-developing technology that has helped power the country’s recent economic growth. It has been a key driver of the Trump White House’s moves to thwart state governments’ efforts to regulate AI.
White House spokesman Kush Desai said in a statement that Trump and his advisers are “always willing to hear out business and technology leaders” but “the only special interest guiding the Administration’s decision-making is the best interest of the American people and the only person with veto power over the Administration’s policy-making is President Trump.”
McCune said in a statement Trump is the "only person setting AI policy for this administration."
As of January, a16z had $90 billion in assets under management, making it the richest venture capital firm in Silicon Valley. The firm recently raised $15 billion, its largest haul ever, and has dedicated billions to AI upstarts including coding startup Cursor and AI leaderboard platform LM Arena. They all stand to benefit from the kind of minimal regulatory policies the firm is pressing in Washington, as would stakes a16z holds in larger companies such as OpenAI and Meta Platforms Inc."

#AndreessenHorowitz’s Rising Influence Over Trump-Era #AI Policy
#SiliconValley’s richest #venturecapital firm emerges as a “lobbying juggernaut” for minimal AI regulation.
Sounding board is firm’s chief #lobbyist, #CollinMcCune. The firm, colloquially known by the shorthand #a16z for the 16 letters between the A and Z in its name, arguably has veto power over any AI-related proposals, according to one former #WhiteHouse official.
