Vinod Khosla's Vision for AI-Driven Wealth Redistribution
Vinod Khosla, founder of Khosla Ventures, has proposed a radical idea to soften the impact of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) on society.
Take 10% of every corporation and put it in a national pool for the people.
Speaking at the TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 conference, Khosla suggested that the US government could take a 10% stake in all public companies, inspired by President Donald Trump's decision to purchase a 10% stake in Intel.
- The idea is to redistribute corporate wealth to the public at large.
- AI leaders have explored similar concepts, such as universal basic income proposals.
