George Hotz is the "George" that Marc Andreessen was referring to in this 2016 interview [1] with Tim Ferriss: Marc Andreessen: And so now, anybody in the world can download it and run it on their own computer. So all of a sudden, AI is like a tractable thing that you can just have on your own laptop, and you can build new things on top of it. If you want to build a bot, you can build a bot. We backed a founder who had literally built himself his own self driving car. Tim Ferriss: I read about it. Marc Andreessen: George. And by the way, him you should interview. But literally, one guy can now build a self driving car. Ten years ago, this was like a DARPA funded, grand challenge research project. Five years ago, this was a team of 1,000 at Google. And now, it’s George. And so that’s an example of the kind of thing where it just looks like it’s going to tip. And then, there’s one George today. There will be 1,000 Georges tomorrow. He's clearly a super-talented guy. He also has a penchant for drama and controversy, but perhaps that's just par for the course in the world of autonomous driving.
