Abstract: We study a generalization of the chaos bound that applies to out-of-time-ordered correlators between four different operators. We prove this bound under the same assumptions that apply for the usual chaos bound and extend it to non-hermitian operators. In a holographic theory, these correlators are controlled by inelastic scattering in the bulk and we comment on implications. In particular, for holographic theories the bound together with the equivalence principle suggests that gravity is the highest spin force, and the strongest one with that spin.
