AI Verified Fortune’s March 6, 2026 article attributes this statement to Vinod Khosla, but the source wording continues after "globally" with additional text ("whether you’re talking about Southeast Asia, Latin America, Europe"). So the submission is a faithful shortened excerpt, correctly attributed to Khosla.

AI Verified Verified. The quote "Whoever wins the AI race will win the economic race, and will win the race for economic power and influence globally." is accurately attributed to Vinod Khosla, from his March 2026 Fortune appearance ("techno-economic war with China"). The Fortune source_url returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but web search corroborates the quote verbatim from the same piece. Year (2026) is current. The vote "for" on "The first company or companies to develop AGI could gain control over a majority of economic activity" is consistent with the quote's thrust that winning the AI race yields dominant economic power. Note: Khosla's framing is primarily geopolitical (US vs China nation-level competition) rather than explicitly company-level, but the underlying claim — AI leadership translating into outsized economic control — aligns with the statement's core meaning, and Khosla clearly supports ("for") that proposition. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
