“If it's state of the art technology, I think we should control the export of that technology as closely as we control nuclear technology or other national security technologies. I'd like to be clear. It's not just about national security with China. It's beyond that. It's political power coming from economic power globally because of how powerful this technology is.”

About Vinod Khosla
Vinod Khosla, founder of Khosla Ventures, has recently argued that artificial intelligence will fundamentally reshape labor, healthcare, and energy. He stated that within a few years robotics will have its "ChatGPT moment," reducing the cost of human expertise and labor to a dollar or two an hour. Khosla said AI doctors are already superior to human doctors and predicted that by 2030 only 10% of doctors will be needed. He proposed offering free AI-powered primary care in India for roughly a dollar a month per person. He also expressed optimism that AI could help make fusion energy viable within two years. On policy, Khosla described the U.S. as being in a "techno-economic war" with China and said he wants to be "as hawkish as possible" on technology exports. He called for a single tax rate on capital gains and ordinary income, with the first $100,000 of income exempted for 125 million Americans. Khosla also made remarks about religion, saying he does not understand why rational people believe in God, and criticized the Catholic Church's use of funds. He described himself as favoring a guaranteed basic lifestyle provided by government alongside capitalist opportunity.
