"Everything else may be a smoking crater," said Farshchi, who's also an investor in autonomous driving start-up Zoox. But that's not what he expects to happen. "My hypothesis here is that there's a need for a fundamentally new class of products," he said.

That means potentially billions of gadgets, big and small, demanding performance many times more powerful than what's available today.
