Yes of course, but let’s assume the goal is to be conversational in what’s changing/new at the level of a Marc Andreesen, without actually having to be Marc Andreesen. I work in the space as well, but because I’m not in the Valley, find it more challenging to always be abreast of the changes. While it might not be essential for the actual product engineering to know what’s new, as a founder talking to customers it’s highly beneficial to be on top of things (depending of course on your vertical).
I got at least one glance when the "ew what" came out audibly.
What does this even mean, anyway, I've kept up with bleeding edge tech from a 3g connection miles from civilization. Do Marcs farts convey some AI-hype-prescience that filters into the SV air that you're missing out on?
What a "producty" take too. Knowing the hype-y buzzwords is more important than your engineers knowing what is cutting edge? Idk, I'm not in sales, maybe I'm way off base.

Oh, I guess we are in a AI bubble then. There are so many wonderful thinkers right now in the AI space to aspire to be like, but the only reason to aspire to be like Marc Andreessen is because you want AI to be the next crypto.
Better find a good coat, since AI winter will be here sooner than I'd thought.
