Humain, a subsidiary of the country’s Public Investment Fund, aims to create an AI value chain in the country.
AWS is to invest $5 billion-plus to build an “AI Zone”. The Zone will contain datacentres for faster AI training and inference, and AWS services like SageMaker,Bedrock and Amazon Q.
AMD and Humain are to invest $10 billion to deploy 500MW of AI compute capacity over the next five years. The collaboration will leverage AMD’s full AI compute portfolio, including AMD Instinct GPUs, EPYC CPUs, Pensando DPUs, Ryzen AI, and the ROCm open software ecosystem.
Humain will manage the infrastructure deployment, including hyperscale data centres, sustainable power systems, and global fibre interconnects. The project is scheduled to activate multi-exaflop capacity by early 2026, focusing on enterprise, startup, and sovereign markets
Nvidia and Humain are to build datacentres in the Saudi Arabia with a projected capacity of up to 500MW powered by several hundred thousand of Nvidia’s most advanced GPUs over the next five years.
The first phase of deployment will be an 18,000 Nvidia GB300 Grace Blackwell AI supercomputer with Nvidia InfiniBand networking.
Humain will deploy the Nvidia Omniverse platform as a multi-tenant system to drive acceleration of the new era of physical AI and robotics through simulation, optimisation and operation of physical environments by new human-AI-led solutions.
Humain and Nvidia will collaborate on large-scale upskilling and training initiatives, providing thousands of Saudi citizens and developers with hands-on experience in advanced AI, simulation, robotics and digital twin technologies. This effort will contribute to building a robust national AI ecosystem.
