Vinod Khosla predicts AI will automate 80% of jobs within four years, erasing $15 trillion in labor value. When labor becomes free, goods and services will collapse in price. By 2040, $30,000 will buy what costs $100,000 today.
The guy who put the first $50 million into OpenAI says your paycheck won't exist by 2030. That's Vinod Khosla, and he bet on DoorDash and Square before anyone heard of them. So when he says something is coming, he's usually already standing in it. He says AI will do 80% of all jobs within 4 years, which means $15 trillion of labor just disappears. But when labor is free, everything gets cheap because the cost of anything is mostly the cost of the hands that made it. He says by 2040, $30 grand will buy more than $100 grand buys you today. Education, healthcare, the, the stuff eating your paycheck right now, all near free. So the person who gets crushed here is the one who spent 4 years fighting this instead of getting ready. Follow me for more on what's coming.
