UAE -President "G42": America's potential restrictions on "Invitation" chips will not surprise us

The head of the largest artificial intelligence business in the UAE said that the establishment of additional US restrictions on semiconductor technology would not be surprising after a report said that President Joe Biden’s administration discussed a ceiling for advanced slides of Nvidia Corp ‘in various countries, including the Gulf States. “I don’t think there’s anything new. There’s a reason behind the existence of export from the beginning. I’m not surprised by the continuation of this,” G42 CEO Beng Xiao told reporters in Dubai on Tuesday. Bloomberg said on Tuesday that he quoted well -known people that Washington was discussing a new approach to organizing sensitive technology by setting a maximum extent for export licenses for some countries to protect US national security. People have indicated that officials are focusing on the wavy countries that seek to establish advanced data centers in the field of artificial intelligence. This measure is aimed at tightening the restrictions that have already targeted China’s ambitions in the field of artificial intelligence, as Washington is investigating the safety risks that are possible as a result of the development of artificial intelligence around the world. The Biden Administration has previously imposed restrictions on the export of artificial intelligence chips from companies such as “Invidia” and “AMD” to more than 40 countries in the Middle East, Africa and Asia, for fear that these products can be transferred to China. G42, based in Abu Dhabi, plans to become the leader in the field of artificial intelligence in the Middle East. The company is supervised by Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who is also the National Security Advisor of the Emirates, and is part of a rich worth $ 1.5 trillion overseeing. The company publishes GPUs (H100), produced by Invidia. It also works with different partners to bring in other types of chips, where Xiao said: “There are many innovations at the level of devices.” Cerebras Systems Inc, a starting to compete with ‘Invidia’ in the computer field of artificial intelligence, in a regulatory disclosure last month before the launch of public subscription is that it relies on ‘G42’ to achieve most of its income. According to Xiao, “G42” will continue to build relations with the United States, regardless of the presidential election winner next month. He added: “In the UAE and (G42) ourselves, we are comfortable working with everyone who receives his duties as a new leader of the US government. We have a clear cooperation framework on artificial intelligence and technology between the two countries.” Xiao pointed out that it is part of a government delegation that the United States visited last month led by the president of the VAE Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, to have talks with US President Joe Biden and his deputy Kamala Harris, a Democratic candidate. The visit also included meetings with senior managers of major US companies, including CEO of Invidia, Jensen Huang. Earlier this year, G42 received a $ 1.5 billion investment from Microsoft after the two parties reached an agreement with the US government as it agreed to end any cooperation with China. Last month, G42 and Invidia announced the creation of a joint lab for climate technology in what represented their first partnership.
