Venture capitalist Marc Andreessen says he sees several advantages to a world dominated by AI coding agents and bots.<\/p>\n

“The bots never get frustrated with you,” Andreessen told Joe Rogan during a recent episode of Rogan’s “Joe Rogan Experience” podcast, adding amid laughter that a bot “never gets drunk, never gets sick, never gets high” or files “HR complaints.”<\/p>\n

Andreessen, cofounder of Andreessen Horowitz, said that right now in Silicon Valley, the “state of the art” setup is to run roughly 20 bots at once. That way, the agents can run concurrently, and the user doesn’t have to wait constantly to provide feedback.<\/p>\n

“This is why people can’t go to sleep is because you’ve got 20 AI bots that are all as good as the best programmer in the world that are doing exactly what you tell them to do on every project you’ve ever wanted to do,” he said. “And they’re running 24\/7, and the only thing you have to do is be there every 10 minutes to be able to give them feedback on what they’re doing.”<\/p>\n
