Abstract
The generalized second law is proven for rapidly-evolving semiclassical Rindler horizons at each instant of time, for arbitrary interacting quantum fields minimally coupled to general relativity. The proof requires the background spacetime to have boost and null translation symmetry. Possible extensions to more general horizons and matter-gravity couplings are discussed.
