Trump enlists OpenAI to help launch first installment of Stargate Project in UAE
2025-05-23
[FoxBusiness] The U.S. and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) are taking their artificial intelligence collaboration a step further, with the announcement of an international Stargate deployment.

OpenAI on Thursday revealed that President Donald Trump
...They hit him with slander, they impeached him twice. Nancy Pelosi tore up his State of the Union address on national TV. They stole an election and put his adherents in jail. They vilified him. They couldn't crucify him, so they shot him. Still, they can't keep him down...
has enlisted it and the $500 billion Stargate Project to launch "Stargate UAE," the first overseas deployment of the AI infrastructure platform.

It also marks the initial partnership under "OpenAI for Countries," the company’s new global initiative to help interested governments build sovereign AI capabilities in coordination with the U.S. government.

"By establishing the world’s first Stargate outside of the U.S. in the UAE, we’re transforming a bold vision into reality," OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said in a statement to Fox News Digital.

#4  ‘ More about the project from the Times of Israel:

[IsraelTimes] The first phase of a massive new artificial data center in the United Arab Emirates will come online in 2026, likely with 100,000 Nvidia chips.

The “Stargate UAE” project is part of a deal brokered last week by US President Donald Trump to build the world’s largest set of AI data centers outside the United States, despite previous US restrictions on sending advanced technology to the UAE because of its close ties to China.

The 10-square-mile (26-sq-km) site in Abu Dhabi will eventually host 5 gigawatts’ worth of data centers.

The first phase of that project will be the 1-gigawatt Stargate UAE project, built by state-backed UAE firm G42 in partnership with US firms OpenAI, Oracle, Nvidia and Cisco Systems, as well as Japan’s SoftBank Group.

The companies say that the Stargate UAE project will use Nvidia’s Grace Blackwell GB300 systems, currently the most advanced AI server that Nvidia offers.

The first 200 megawatts of capacity will go live in 2026, the companies said. The group did not give a number of servers, but analyst firm TrendForce estimates that GB300 servers with 72 chips each consume about 140 kilowatts of power, which equates to about 1,400 servers or 100,000 Nvidia chips.
