AI Builder in Residence

Job description

AI is commoditising craft and will soon commoditise taste. What it can't commoditise is what we deeply, weirdly care about as humans. We were forced, and still are to a big extent, to find people who do jobs that must be done. But when any job can be done, we are left to ask: what is worth building? We are entering a new generation of builders who will be more and more similar to artists. Artists never create what must be created, cause there is nothing that must be created. They create what they want to create as an act of self-expression, and expression is forward-looking. It makes a statement about what could be https://www.nfx.com/post/infinite-game. This will give rise to beautiful companies. The companies that will shape roles around people who deeply care about what others don't even notice will create things that others don't even imagine. This is already happening. Stripe launching a book publishing company. A16Z launching a new media division. Early-stage startups launching fellowships and residencies. If this resonates with you and you feel you want to build something weird with us that only you can see, please apply.
