Tenev made the forecast on November 4, 2026, following his October claim that all software and hardware will eventually be verified. The announcement coincided with updates to Aristotle, Harmonic’s AI system for mathematical reasoning, which Tenev chairs and which can verify C code and Verilog hardware designs. Adoption beyond demonstrations, disclosure of verified components by Robinhood and similar commitments from competitors will help assess whether this timeline is achievable.
