Together AI partners with Saudi Humain for data center compute

U.S. startup Together AI will use compute from Saudi Arabia's Humain for its open-source AI models, a move that sidesteps U.S. regulatory and political backlash over data center expansion. The deal signals growing Gulf investment in AI infrastructure and a shift of AI compute capacity to the region. Uncertainties include the scale of the partnership and its impact on U.S. AI policy.
