Musk’s xAI to Rent Data Centre Capacity in Saudi Firm Humain: Report

Elon Musk’s AI startup, xAI, is currently in talks to rent data centre capacity in Saudi Arabia, Bloomberg reported, citing sources. The move is part of the company’s strategy to improve its infrastructure in regions with low energy costs and favourable political conditions.
According to Bloomberg, the firm is in preliminary discussions with two potential partners: Humain, a Saudi-funded AI company providing xAI with several gigawatts of capacity, and another organisation which is constructing a smaller, yet more readily available 200-megawatt facility.
Despite being backed by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, the company has reportedly not yet begun construction on the infrastructure it has committed to developing. Any collaboration with xAI would provide Musk with future computing resources, rather than being an immediate solution.
The AI startup has been increasing its data centre capacity to train more sophisticated models, aiming to compete more vigorously with OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Anthropic’s Claude. Its supercomputer cluster in Memphis, Tennessee, known as Colossus, is regarded as the largest in the world.
Leading tech companies are projected to invest $320 billion in AI this year, with both Meta and CoreWeave announcing substantial expenditures on AI data centres this week.
Within Humain, a technical team led by Jeff Thomas, is tasked with constructing the data centre infrastructure, whereas Saeed Al-Dobas manages the commercial negotiations.
According to the report, the project may be linked to Saudi Arabia’s previous investment in xAI, which was part of a broader initiative by Saudi royal Alwaleed bin Talal to strengthen connections between the kingdom and Musk’s enterprises.
Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund is expected to be a significant player as xAI seeks to secure additional funding from investors in a transaction that could value between $170 billion and $200 billion, according to the Financial Times.

NVIDIA Reveals Two Customers Accounted for 39% of Quarterly Revenue

NVIDIA disclosed on August 28, 2025, that two unnamed customers contributed 39% of its revenue in the July quarter, raising questions about the chipmaker’s dependence on a small group of clients.
The company posted record quarterly revenue of $46.7 billion, up 56% from a year ago, driven by insatiable demand for its data centre products.
In a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), NVIDIA said “Customer A” accounted for 23% of total revenue and “Customer B” for 16%. A year earlier, its top two customers made up 14% and 11% of revenue.
The concentration highlights the role of large buyers, many of whom are cloud service providers. “Large cloud service providers made up about 50% of the company’s data center revenue,” NVIDIA chief financial officer Colette Kress said on Wednesday. Data center sales represented 88% of NVIDIA’s overall revenue in the second quarter.
“We have experienced periods where we receive a significant amount of our revenue from a limited number of customers, and this trend may continue,” the company wrote in the filing.
One of the customers could possibly be Saudi Arabia’s AI firm Humain, which is building two data centers in Riyadh and Dammam, slated to open in early 2026. The company has secured approval to import 18,000 NVIDIA AI chips.
The second customer could be OpenAI or one of the major cloud providers — Microsoft, AWS, Google Cloud, or Oracle. Another possibility is xAI.
Previously, Elon Musk said xAI has 230,000 GPUs, including 30,000 GB200s, operational for training its Grok model in a supercluster called Colossus 1. Inference is handled by external cloud providers.
Musk added that Colossus 2, which will host an additional 550,000 GB200 and GB300 GPUs, will begin going online in the coming weeks. “As Jensen Huang has stated, xAI is unmatched in speed. It’s not even close,” Musk wrote in a post on X.Meanwhile, OpenAI is preparing for a major expansion. Chief Financial Officer Sarah Friar said the company plans to invest in trillion-dollar-scale data centers to meet surging demand for AI computation.

‘Reliance Intelligence’ is Here, In Partnership with Google and Meta

Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani has announced the launch of Reliance Intelligence, a new wholly owned subsidiary focused on artificial intelligence, marking what he described as the company’s “next transformation into a deep-tech enterprise.”
Addressing shareholders, Ambani said Reliance Intelligence had been conceived with four core missions—building gigawatt-scale AI-ready data centres powered by green energy, forging global partnerships to strengthen India’s AI ecosystem, delivering AI services for consumers and SMEs in critical sectors such as education, healthcare, and agriculture, and creating a home for world-class AI talent.
Work has already begun on gigawatt-scale AI data centres in Jamnagar, Ambani said, adding that they would be rolled out in phases in line with India’s growing needs.
These facilities, powered by Reliance’s new energy ecosystem, will be purpose-built for AI training and inference at a national scale.
Ambani also announced a “deeper, holistic partnership” with Google, aimed at accelerating AI adoption across Reliance businesses.
“We are marrying Reliance’s proven capability to build world-class assets and execute at India scale with Google’s leading cloud and AI technologies,” Ambani said.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai, in a recorded message, said the two companies would set up a new cloud region in Jamnagar dedicated to Reliance.
“It will bring world-class AI and compute from Google Cloud, powered by clean energy from Reliance and connected by Jio’s advanced network,” Pichai said.
He added that Google Cloud would remain Reliance’s largest public cloud partner, supporting mission-critical workloads and co-developing advanced AI initiatives.
Ambani further unveiled a new AI-focused joint venture with Meta.
He said the venture would combine Reliance’s domain expertise across industries with Meta’s open-source AI models and tools to deliver “sovereign, enterprise-ready AI for India.”
Meta founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg, in his remarks, said the partnership is aimed to bring open-source AI to Indian businesses at scale.
“With Reliance’s reach and scale, we can bring this to every corner of India. This venture will become a model for how AI, and one day superintelligence, can be delivered,” Zuckerberg said.
Ambani also highlighted Reliance’s investments in AI-powered robotics, particularly humanoid robotics, which he said could transform manufacturing, supply chains and healthcare.
“Intelligent automation will create new industries, new jobs and new opportunities for India’s youth,” he told shareholders.
Calling AI an opportunity “as large, if not larger” than Reliance’s digital services push a decade ago, Ambani said Reliance Intelligence would work to deliver “AI everywhere and for every Indian.”
“We are building for the next decade with confidence and ambition,” he said, underscoring that the company’s partnerships, green infrastructure and India-first governance approach would be central to this strategy.
