Khosla shared his predictions for the future in a far -reaching interview about the Neglected with Jack Altman Podcast. As a risk capital provider and early investor in companies such as Square and InstacartKHOSLA offered managing directors advice on navigation unprecedented changes. Like companies Sears And Toys ‘r’ us -uns collapsed under digital pressure, but Khosla warns that the 2030s rewrite a “faster departure” of giants as AI rules of industry.

In the following you will find an overview of the main forecasts of Khosla for AI, the economy and more.

Most important snack:

• A era of an unprecedented disorder: Khosla describes the current technology cycle as “crazy and frenetic” and explains: “I have never seen such a cycle. Almost every job is reinvented, every material thing is reinvented with AI as a driver.” It compares the extent of the change in the 1960s and states: “We will see this big change in such a short time, it is almost difficult to imagine how society adapts.”
• AI and the end of the work: Khosla predicts: “Over the next 5 years, AI can do all economically valuable jobs that can do 80% of them. 80% of all jobs can be done by a AI.” He believes until 2040: “The need to work will disappear. People will work on things because they want, not because they have to pay their mortgage.”
• Fortune 500 disorder: He predicts a dramatic acceleration in the decline of large acting companies: “One of my predictions is that the 2030s will have a faster death of Fortune 500 companies than we have ever seen … that the transition from existing companies will not happen. Someone new will reinvent this.”

Predictions according to the sector:

• Health care: “If all medical knowledge is free … You have an unlimited number of basic care doctors, oncologists, gastroenterologists, mental health therapists … How would you redesign the health system?” Khosla argues that firmly anchored interests and regulatory obstacles will slow down-but not to stop.
• Robotics: He predicts that “almost everyone in the 2030s will have a humanoid robot at home … probably with something narrow that they cook for them.” The main GPPAL is not hardware, but intelligence.
• Energy: Khosla is “very optimistic about energy”, especially in fusion and super-hot geothermal energy, of which he believes that they could make power “cheaper than natural gas”.

Advice for entrepreneurs:

• Social and geopolitical implications: Khosla warns of the risks of authoritarian regime that AI use both hard and soft power: “By 2040, the greatest risk that we are exposed is. China uses both good AI – Cyber ​​Ai, Warfare AI – but also socially good AI, like freelance doctors for everyone on the planet to employ their political philosophy.”
• Philosophy about venture and innovation: Khosla emphasizes the mandatory innovation of founders: “Only innovation-I cannot imagine very many great examples in which great innovations came from someone who was tall or in the business. Experts are terrible to predict the future; they extrapolate the past. Entrepreneurs invent the future they want.”
• At risk and effects: “Most people reduce the risk of increasing the probability of success. I do the opposite: start with (the) high consequences of success. I don’t care about the likelihood of failure.”
