Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Launches AI Company ‘Humain’ to Accelerate National AI Ambitions

Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has unveiled Humain, a new artificial intelligence venture aimed at strengthening Saudi Arabia’s AI infrastructure and advancing the kingdom’s technological capabilities. Backed by the Public Investment Fund (PIF), which oversees $940 billion in assets, Humain will focus on developing large-scale data centers and foundational AI systems to support the nation’s digital transformation goals.

The announcement coincides with the arrival of Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Mark Zuckerberg, and former President Donald Trump for a U.S.-Saudi investment forum, where AI is expected to dominate discussions. As global tech giants seek partnerships with the PIF, Humain reflects Saudi Arabia’s strategic push to diversify its economy beyond oil and establish itself as a leader in AI innovation.
