An initial phase featuring an 18,000-GPU NVIDIA GB300 Grace Blackwell supercomputer and InfiniBand networking is already underway, establishing the sovereign compute foundation needed to support autonomous vehicle training, simulation, and fleet validation at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAutonomous mobility will become one of the defining AI platforms of the next decade,\u201d said Tareq Amin, CEO of HUMAIN. \u201cBy working with NVIDIA, HUMAIN is helping enable the infrastructure, intelligence, and operational scale needed to develop and support the future of Level 4-ready transportation in Saudi Arabia. This collaboration reflects our broader vision to help build AI-native infrastructure platforms that connect the digital and physical worlds at scale.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NVIDIA is the only company offering a Level 4-ready platform that enables the global automotive industry to build and scale robotaxi and AV fleets. Built on the NVIDIA Halos full-stack safety system for physical AI, NVIDIA\u2019s DRIVE Hyperion combines high-performance NVIDIA DRIVE AGX in-vehicle compute and NVIDIA Halos OS \u2014 the software foundation of Halos, built on the safety-certified NVIDIA DRIVE OS operating system \u2014 with a compatible multimodal sensor suite and NVIDIA DRIVE AV software purpose-built for highly automated and autonomous driving capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAutonomous mobility is entering its industrial scaling moment,\u201d said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. \u201cVehicles are becoming robots, and robotaxi fleets will require AI infrastructure that can perceive, reason, and operate safely in the real world. NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion gives the world\u2019s automakers, AV developers and mobility networks a common Level 4-ready foundation \u2014 uniting compute, sensors, safety software and a global ecosystem to bring robotaxis from pilots to everyday transportation at scale.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As NVIDIA continues to scale its collaboration with automakers, tier 1 suppliers and mobility providers across the Middle East and beyond, HUMAIN&#8217;s participation marks a defining step in Saudi Arabia&#8217;s journey toward becoming a global leader in AI-driven transportation infrastructure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of the recently announced major global expansion of NVIDIA&#8217;s DRIVE Hyperion robotaxi-ready platform ecosystem, HUMAIN, a Public Investment Fund (PIF) company delivering full-stack artificial intelligence capabilities, will be leading the platform&#8217;s entry into the Middle East.
