[Video | a16z Co-founder Marc Andreessen: AI Chips Will Become Cheap and Plentiful Within Five Years] In January 2026, a16z co-founder Marc Andreessen stated in an interview that the future AI industry might evolve into a structure similar to the computer industry: a few 'god models' running in massive data centers, alongside numerous smaller models deployed across various devices. He also predicted that the shortage of AI chips would not persist in the long term. NVIDIA's current high profits will attract more competitors to enter the market, with AMD and cloud computing giants accelerating the development of their own chips. Over the next five years, AI chips are likely to become cheaper and more abundant.
