HUMAIN announces partnership with xAI to build next-gen AI compute power

At the U.S.- Saudi Investment Forum held in Washington, D.C., HUMAIN, a PIF company delivering full-stack artificial intelligence solutions, announced the signing of a landmark framework agreement with xAI, the U.S.-based frontier AI company known for its rapid advancement in cutting-edge AI systems and founded by Elon Musk. This strategic agreement lays the foundation for a long-term collaboration aimed at designing, building, and operating a new generation of low-cost, hyperscale GPU data centers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as well as the deployment of xAI’s Grok models across the country, the company says. Under the scope of the agreement, HUMAIN and xAI will jointly develop a network of world-class GPU data centers, anchored by a flagship 500 MW+ facility, which is set to become one of the most advanced AI compute hubs globally. This will be in addition to xAI’s existing superclusters and represents the first large-scale compute deployment for xAI outside of the United States. As part of HUMAIN’s mission to build world-class AI infrastructure, this partnership advances its capability to deliver scalable AI compute and digital services. The facility will provide a critical platform for training, deploying, and scaling frontier AI models, HUMAIN explains. In addition to building the required infrastructure, HUMAIN and xAI will collaborate to deploy xAI’s Grok models throughout the nation. This includes the integration of Grok into HUMAIN’s agent platform, HUMAIN ONE, unlocking real-time intelligence, autonomous workflows, and next-generation AI copilots across government, enterprise, and society.
