Marc Andreessen just named the lie that held for a hundred years and is collapsing in real time.
We gave authority to the people who explained things. Not the people who built them.
And nobody questioned why.
For a century, builders created and journalists translated. The public accepted it because complexity demanded a middleman.
But the middleman was never the expert. The middleman was the channel.
And we mistook the channel for the source.
Andreessen: “You set it loose and it will write you literally a 30-page answer. This is basically like a textbook on any topic.”
Any topic. Infinite depth. Zero cost. No gatekeeper.
He has a name for what comes next. Practitioner media.
Andrej Karpathy doesn’t sit across from a journalist. He turns on a camera and teaches the world how the architecture works. No filter. No editorial framing. No one deciding what you’re ready to hear.
The press calls it dangerous.
They are not protecting the public. They are protecting the bottleneck that gave them power.
The critic always needed the creator. The creator never needed the critic.
They just had no other way to reach the world.
Now they do.
