[Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE)
are aggressively buying thousands
of Nvidia chips, essential for developing
artificial intelligence (AI) software.
Both countries aim to become leaders in AI
as they seek to boost their economies.
Saudi Arabia has purchased at least
3,000 of Nvidia’s H100 chips,
while the UAE has secured access to
thousands of these chips and has already
developed its own open-source
large language model called Falcon.

These Gulf states’ huge purchases
of Nvidia chips have contributed to
a global supply shortage,
as tech companies worldwide rush to
obtain chips for AI development.
Last week, it was reported that leading
Chinese tech companies are also seeking
to buy up Nvidia’s high-performance chips.

According to sources, Nvidia will ship
approximately 550,000 of its latest H100 chips
globally in 2023,
primarily to American tech companies.
The chips purchased by Saudi Arabia and the UAE
are part of their efforts to develop their
own AI capabilities and reduce dependence
on other countries like China and the US.
