The U.S. Department of Commerce announced on Nov. 19 that it had authorized exporting tens of thousands of American advanced artificial intelligence (AI) semiconductor chips to two companies in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.
The microchips will go to G42, a state-run AI company in Abu Dhabi in the UAE, and Humain, a Saudi government-backed AI business. Both companies have large data center projects planned in each of their respective nations.
