Eric Siu discusses Anthropic's $400k events manager job posting, which Marc Andreessen highlighted. The speakers debate what happens to job value as code and AI become abundant, and whether the real scarcity now is good engineers rather than technical skills.
Anthropic is paying 400 grand a year for an events manager, not an engineer, an events manager. So this is my good buddy Marc Andreessen retweeted this. So, so you have an events lead brand. I'm pulling this up right now. Okay. So Anthropic's missions: create safe, reliable AI. Annual compensation for this role is listed below. So basically they're looking for someone to own the execution of brand experiences that translate Anthropic's values into physical moments. So Marc Andreessen says when one thing becomes abundant and cheap, another thing becomes scarce and valuable. So what is becoming more abundant and cheap now? Code. Okay. I would say intelligence is becoming more abundant and Engineering, yeah. Like actual engineers that you're hiring within an organization. Even though we need more engineers now. No, no, we need more good engineers. More good engineers. Everything is we need more, but we need good. Yes. We need more good. That's what we need. That's good. So, but another thing becomes scarce and valuable. So what's more scarce and valuable now?
