NEW YORK – Marc Andreessen isn’t worried about artificial intelligence taking people’s jobs. The way he sees it, technological innovation isn’t allowed to disrupt much of the economy anyway.

The cofounder of venture capital giant Andreessen Horowitz laid out his thoughts in his newsletter last weekend. Andresssen also is famous for creating one of the first Internet browsers will still in college.

In less regulated sectors of economy, Andreessen argues, “technology whips through them, pushing down prices and raising quality every year.” Think computer software, cell phone services, and TVs.

But in other sectors, technological innovation is “virtually forbidden,” he writes.

“The prices of education, health care, and housing as well as anything provided or controlled by the government are going to the moon, even as those sectors are technologically stagnant,” he notes.

What’s more, very little is being done to address this problem, he writes: “We are heading into a world where a flat-screen TV that covers your entire wall costs $100, and a four-year college degree costs $1 million, and nobody has anything even resembling a proposal on how to systemically fix this.”

Over time, he adds, the prices of regulated, non-technological products rise, while the prices of less regulated, technologically powered products fall.

“Which eats the economy? The regulated sectors continuously grow as a percentage of GDP; the less regulated sectors shrink,” he writes. “At the limit, 99% of the economy will be the regulated, non-technological sectors, which is precisely where we are headed.”
