xAI looking to lease data centre capacity from Saudi Arabia

xAI is in discussions with Humain to lease data centre capacity for its compute-intensive AI models. Bloomberg reported talks are in the early stages, but an arrangement could include several gigawatts of capacity for xAI.

Humain is backed Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and the Public Investment Fund (PIF).

The news agency noted such an arrangement could be years in the making since Humain is yet to break ground on its infrastructure build.

Financial Times recently reported xAI was considering a further funding round in which PIF could play a part.
