U.S. chip maker Nvidia will partner with Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund-owned AI startup Humain and will ship 18,000 chips to the Middle Eastern nation to help power a new data center project.

Newly launched Saudi Arabian AI venture Humain plans to deploy 500MW of data center compute over the next five years featuring AMD hardware. Together, sovereign-backed Humain and AMD will invest $10 billion in the joint effort, which will see facilities built in both Saudi Arabia and the US.

President Trump met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and attended a US-Saudi investment forum along with Elon Musk and other top CEOs.
