Verified via an official Andreessen Horowitz LinkedIn post: it attributes to Marc Andreessen the same wording (“The regulatory landscape is fairly scary right now” and the “full outlawing of the technology” line) and labels the source as Cisco AI Summit. A separate transcript of the a16z/Cisco conversation reflects the same remarks in spoken form, supporting the attribution.
