RIYADH: With a deployment announced by HUMAIN and Groq, Saudi Arabia is now the first nation in the region to host OpenAI’s recently published publicly accessible models. Groq’s high-speed inference infrastructure, housed in HUMAIN’s sovereign data centers in the Kingdom, powers the gpt-oss-120B and gpt-oss-20B models.
In accordance with national legislative and data sovereignty standards, the action is a component of larger initiatives to localize sophisticated artificial intelligence technology. The use of OpenAI’s open-source models in Saudi Arabian infrastructure is part of a larger plan to diversify the country’s economy and establish itself as a significant force in the global AI market.
The rollout will provide Saudi-based developers, academics, and businesses access to AI technologies that were previously restricted by infrastructure or regulatory requirements, according to HUMAIN, a startup supported by the Public Investment Fund.
Groq, a US-based business that specializes in hardware for AI inference, offers a specially constructed processing platform that is intended to give reliable, fast performance. The development, according to HUMAIN CEO Tareq Amin, is a step toward reaching technical self-reliance.
