Nvidia united with Saudi Arabia to make “Middle East Silicon”

According to the Humain statement, the projected capacity of the project will reach 2 megawatts in the next five years and will be provided with hundreds of thousands of units of the most advanced Nvidia graphics processing units (GPUs). The first phase of the project will include the launch of an artificial intelligence superconducting with 6,000 GB300 Grace Blackwell processors and the use of the Nvidia Infiniband network.

“This cooperation strengthens Humain’s mission to turn Saudi Arabia into a global power in the field of artificial intelligence; “The mission is pursued by combining advanced infrastructure, artificial intelligence border models, interactive digital platforms, and human capital development.”

These massive and scalable data centers will provide a safe infrastructure for the training and deployment of indigenous and independent native artificial intelligence models that can accelerate digital innovation and transformation in Saudi Arabia’s domestic industries and even globally.

In another part of the project, the Nvidia Omniverse platform is to be used as a multi -use system for applications of physical and robotic intelligence.

The collaboration will also include training programs and upgrading workforce skills; Programs designed to develop technical knowledge of citizens and Saudi developers in the field of advanced artificial intelligence, simulation, robotics and digital twins. Humain has announced that these measures are being taken to achieve Saudi Arabia’s vision goals for economic diversity and digital leadership.

“Just as electricity and the Internet have become the basic infrastructure of each country, artificial intelligence has reached such a position,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of Nvidia. “Along with Humain, we build artificial intelligence infrastructure for Saudi people and companies to make a bold dream of the country.”

“Cooperation with Nvidia is a turning point for Saudi Arabia,” said Saudi Arabia’s Minister of Communication and Information Technology. “With the help of Humain, we build future artificial intelligence factories to start a new era of physical artificial intelligence.”

Humain CEO Tariq Amin also said: “This partnership is a long step towards achieving Saudi aspirations to advance artificial intelligence and advanced digital infrastructure. “We are creating a global capacity for a future that comes with smart technology and powerful humans.”
