“that transition won’t happen from existing companies. Somebody new will reinvent this.”

Vinod Khosla, investor, interviewed on podcast 1 July 2025 Silicon Valley investor Vinod Khosla AI job prediction interview (Fortune)

The transition he described, a faster demise of Fortune 500 companies in the 2030s, will not come from existing companies; somebody new will reinvent this.

Unresolvable The public record could not settle it.

Reasoning

An open-ended prediction with no horizon and undefined terms ('that transition', 'existing companies'), so it can't be settled.
