Investor Vinod Khosla predicts AI will result in free lawyers, doctors, and tutors in 10 years. The 68-year-old billionaire said given AI's impressive capabilities, "I do think in 10 years we'll have free doctors, free tutors for everybody, and free lawyers so they can access the legal system." "This large transformation is the opportunity to free humanity from the need to work," Khosla told Semafor in an interview. Still, Khosla told Business Insider in October he doesn't want to place too big of a bet on AI at the moment. Given the hype around the technology, Khosla thinks that AI startups are overvalued, and that only a few will survive.

Ali Ghodsi, CEO of Databricks, and Naveen Rao, CEO of MosaicML, met for the first time at the initial Cerebral Valley AI Summit. That's the biggest generative AI startup deal so far, by my counting.
