How did this get so many points?

  I'm going to bet it's because this was written by Marc Andreessen.

  Some people probably agree with him. I think his reasoning isn't quite right and do think that there will be people fired and replaced at least in part by AI, but I think his insistence that AI is illegal and that's the reason health, education, and housing prices are so high is kind of funny. I feel like he hasn't thought about how setting a bone, wrapping a bandage, meeting with individual students, building on finite land might not be done as relatively efficiently as the other things on that list.

  Sometimes I'll upvote a post where the article is essentially useless if I'm interested in seeing the hacker news community discuss the topic. I haven't done so for this article, but it could be a similar motivator for others.

  "Am I interested to see what HN thinks about this?" If the answer is yes, I upvote the post. The article itself might be junk, but that's irrelevant.
