AMD는 사우디아라비아의 신생 AI 기업 휴메인(HUMAIN)과 100억달러 규모의 AI 인프라 구축을 위한 획기적인 협력을 16일 발표했다. 이번 계약에 따라 AMD와 휴메인은 향후 5년간 최대 100억달러를 투자하여 500메가와트(MW) 규모의 AI 컴퓨팅 역량을 확보할 계획이다.
Cooperation with Saudi AI company 'Humain' to build 500MW AI infrastructure
AMD invests $10 billion to build global AI computing network.
AMD announced today a groundbreaking collaboration with Saudi Arabian AI startup HUMAIN to build a $10 billion AI infrastructure.
This collaboration is expected to support the global expansion of AI technologies through a network of AMD-powered AI computing centers spanning from Saudi Arabia to the United States.
Under the agreement, AMD and Humain plan to invest up to $10 billion over the next five years to secure 500 megawatts (MW) of AI computing capacity.
AMD will provide its AI computing portfolio and AMD ROCm™ open software ecosystem, while Humane will oversee hyperscale data centers, sustainable power systems, and global network interconnection infrastructure, building an AI superstructure that supports AI workloads for enterprises, startups, and countries.
AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su Lisa Su emphasized, “AMD has a goal to realize the future of AI everywhere through open high-performance computing, and this collaboration will be an important milestone in the advancement of global AI infrastructure.”
“This collaboration embodies our vision to democratize AI, enabling advanced AI applications without infrastructure constraints,” said Tareq Amin, CEO of Humain. “It provides an open opportunity for innovators around the world.”
The two companies are already conducting initial deployments in key regions around the world and plan to build a multi-exaflops AI infrastructure by early 2026, based on next-generation AI semiconductors, modular data center zones, and a developer-centric software platform that supports open standards and interoperability.
This collaboration is expected to contribute to setting a new standard in the AI market by combining Saudi Arabia’s AI support workforce and national AI policies with AMD’s comprehensive AI technology.
Looking at the key AI technologies offered by AMD, AMD Instinct™ GPUs deliver industry-leading memory and inference performance, while AMD EPYC™ CPUs support world-leading compute density and energy efficiency.
AMD Pensando™ DPU enables scalable, secure, programmable networking, and AMD Ryzen™ AI enables on-device AI computing.
The AMD ROCm open software ecosystem supports major AI frameworks such as PyTorch and SGLang.
