Marc Andreessen joins CSIS's Navin Girishankar for a wide-ranging conversation on artificial intelligence, productivity growth, industrial policy, and America's technological future.
Andreessen argues that while AI has already begun reshaping the economy, the largest impacts are still ahead. He explores how AI could dramatically expand access to expertise, improve productivity, and transform industries ranging from healthcare and education to law and software development. At the same time, he warns that many of the biggest barriers to progress are not technological but institutional, driven by regulation, policy choices, and infrastructure constraints.
The discussion also covers the global AI race, U.S.-China competition, export controls, data centers, energy, reindustrialization, defense technology, and the role of government in fostering innovation. Along the way, Andreessen shares his views on technological progress, national competitiveness, and why he believes America still has an opportunity to lead the next wave of economic growth.
