Billionaire venture capitalist Marc Andreessen predicts that the design and manufacture of general-purpose humanoid robots will become the most lucrative market in history, surpassing even the internet in terms of economic impact.

In an interview with Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale at a forum hosted by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation & Institute, Andreessen urged the United States to lead in the development of robot factories, putting the nation in the driver’s seat of the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Andreessen told the audience, referencing the humanoid robot being developed at Musk’s Tesla electric-vehicle company:

“You’ve likely seen Elon Musk’s Tesla Optimus robot. These humanoid robots, this general-purpose robotics trend, will take off in the next decade, and it will happen at an enormous scale.”

Drones are just flying robots. Self-driving cars are high-speed land robots. We will soon all be at the mercy of robots, and idiots like the guy in the video above are cheering it on. Investors are very excited about all the money they will make in a world transformed by AI-powered robots. It can’t happen fast enough for them.

Make machines more like humans, and make humans more like machines. That’s their M/O, and it’s being driven by people like Marc Andreessen, Larry Ellison, Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel, Curtis Yarvin, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk. They are transhumanists, the high priests of a new religion called Transhumanism. They are the ones driving White House policy right now and that’s why we see the huge investment in AI with President Trump’s Operation Stargate, among other projects. Massive data centers are being constructed all over America. Amazon just announced today, June 4, it will invest $10 billion in new data centers in North Carolina to expand its AI infrastructure. Facebook/Meta, Microsoft, Google, Elon Musk’s Colossus, and Altman’s OpenAI all have major AI projects they’re building to the tune of trillions of dollars. What you will always hear from them when questioned, is that we can’t let America be beaten by the Chinese in the race to develop AI to its fullest potential, as if these globalists have any allegiance to America. Their only allegiance is to their bank accounts. Do they know that for them to be successful means they will make American society more like that of China? Surely they must, but I’m not sure they care.

As more of our life’s tasks get performed by computers and now AI, we slowly lose our ability to focus, create, think deeply, pray, or feel on an emotional level. At what point do we lose our humanity? That’s what people like Joe Allen and Patrick Wood have been warning about for years. Now we see it happening in real time. Kids have no attention spans. They don’t want to read books, or anything longer than a social media post. Their brains are being changed by the tech. Even adults are falling victim to this. Some have confided in me that they no longer read books like they used to.

What Andreessen is talking about with the robots is not R2D2 stuff. He’s talking about robots that will end up being almost indistinguishable from humans in appearance and movements. Machines acting like humans.
