The UAE's AI Ambitions Get a Boost with Nvidia Chip Approval: A Game-Changer for the Gulf Region.

-
The advance made by the United States in the approval of cutting-edge Nvidia chips to G42 is a historic development for UAE’s artificial intelligence ambitions. This strategy thus not only represents significant technological growth but also marks an important political milestone for UAE that wants to portray itself as a global hub for technology. In particular, accessing advanced AI technologies such as Nvidia’s H100 models has been significantly hindered over the years due to fears about UAE-China relations, with the US tightening its export restrictions in the area.
