I feel like there has to be a saying that encompass this idea that once you become good at something and apply it to the world, you wield the hammer and everything is a nail. To be fair to Marc Andreessen, he's not the first to have this grandiose vision, and politically almost every ideology have had their fair share of "manifestos". With that said, it's not a very interesting manifesto, it tries everything in it's book to justify it: - Appeal to authority (citing various people, such as Milton friedman) - Appeal to emotion (every time someone doesn't create an AI, someone dies) - Dehumanize in the name of humanity (the classical the end justifies the means) If people were to believe in this drivel, I wouldn't be surprised if it spawned yet another extreme and radical political ideology, as it doesn't seek to try and see the world for what it is but instead reject reality and substitute it with their own vision. However I'm also a bit skeptical of using "facts and stats" to debunk the manifesto, facts and stats are good but since most manifestos are radical by nature, and as such I think that fact checking only will lead to self-satisfaction instead of an actual debunking, since the supporters will hand-wave it away.
