Episode description

A 5,000-word essay titled “The Techno-Optimist Manifesto” is getting a lot of attention in Silicon Valley and elsewhere. Written by the venture capitalist Marc Andreessen, the essay is a paean to technology as a driver of wealth and happiness but also a jingoistic glorification of late-stage capitalism and American nationalism. Adam and Cameron discuss. Brought to you by: factormeals.com/ones50 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
