🧵 REPLYING TO @MarioNawfal (Mario Nawfal):
┌─ "🇺🇸🇨🇳 ANDREESSEN: “BUILD DREADNOUGHT FACTORIES, OR BOW TO CHINESE ROBOTS”
Marc Andreessen just fired a shot across America’s rusting industrial heart: reinvent manufacturing for the AI era - or get buried by China’s robotic future.
He’s not talking about bringing back ‘50s factory jobs.
He’s talking about alien dreadnoughts: hyper-automated hubs pumping out robots, drones, and AI-powered machines faster than humans ever could.
Problem? Manufacturing now makes up less than 12% of U.S. GDP.
And half of all future factory jobs may go unfilled - not because there’s no work, but because there’s no one trained to do it.
So we have 2 options:
Build the factories of the future. Or import the future from Beijing.
Choose fast.
