AMD and Humain, a Saudi PIF company focused on delivering global full-stack artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, have launched a new “AI in a Box” solution for enterprises across Saudi Arabia. The turnkey solution is designed for entry-level AI use cases across a range of industries, including oil and gas and manufacturing.

Developed by Humain and powered by high-performance AMD Instinct GPUs and energy-efficient AMD EPYC CPUs, the AI in a Box solution provides enterprises with an integrated computing platform designed to simplify the adoption of AI technologies.

It provides organisations with accessible AI computing capabilities to deploy and test AI applications without the need for hyperscale infrastructure.

According to the duo, the turnkey solution is designed for entry-level AI use cases across a range of industries, including oil and gas, financial services, and manufacturing, enabling organizations to begin deploying AI workloads, test new applications, and expand access to AI tools among their employees.

Developed by Humain and powered by high-performance AMD Instinct GPUs and energy-efficient AMD EPYC CPUs, the AI in a Box solution provides enterprises with an integrated computing platform designed to simplify the adoption of AI technologies.

The launch builds on the strategic collaboration between AMD and Humain, which includes plans to invest up to $10 billion to support AI infrastructure initiatives. 

The collaboration is aimed at accelerating the development and deployment of advanced AI computing capabilities in Saudi Arabia and supporting the kingdom’s ambition to establish itself as a global AI and technology hub.

As part of the broader collaboration, AMD, Humain and Cisco, through a joint venture, have also announced plans to deploy up to 1 gigawatt (GW) of AI infrastructure in Saudi Arabia by 2030. 

The planned infrastructure is expected to provide large-scale computing capacity to support the growing demand for AI applications and services.

Dr. Lisa Su, the Chair and CEO of AMD, said the collaboration with Humain is focused on making high-performance computing more accessible to businesses of different sizes across Saudi Arabia, enabling them to develop new applications and expand their capabilities in the AI era.

The AI in a Box solution is intended to provide enterprises with a practical entry point into AI adoption. Organizations can deploy an initial AI workload, evaluate its business value, and subsequently scale their computing capabilities as requirements grow.

Tareq Amin, CEO of Humain, said the AI in a Box solution is designed to make advanced computing capabilities more practical for enterprises that do not initially require hyperscale infrastructure, providing a simplified pathway from an organization’s first AI use case to larger-scale enterprise deployment.

The launch represents another step in the development of Saudi Arabia’s AI computing ecosystem, supporting the adoption of advanced technologies across key economic sectors while contributing to the Kingdom’s broader digital transformation and AI ambitions.
