On Sunday @napster_corp announced Sovereign AI stack for Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 in partnership with @Lenovo_ME and @DETASAD 🔥🔥 👉🏻 Napster provide agentic layer 👉🏻 DetaSad provides GPUs and cloud infra 👉🏻 Lenovo provides hardware and custom solutions This means Saudi enterprises and governments can now run AI completely in-country without the data going abroad! Sovereignty is THE critical pillar for enterprise to truly adopt AI at scale beyond the POC!

And just like that @napster_corp is now the first fully sovereign agentic AI solution in Saudi too 🇸🇦 What it means: local enterprises and governments can use frontier AI and the data remains in the country 🔐 This is the only way to scale enterprise AI use cases ✅ Great partnership with @Lenovo_ME @DETASAD 🤝

Last night @napster_corp won the ‘Sovereign AI’ award from @inc_arabia 🔥🏆 Sovereignty is the concept of running AI models in the region, so all the data and reasoning remain in the country - NOT outsourced to another country Why this is important: ▪️the conversation with Enterprise in the UAE is shifting from ‘what can AI do’ to ‘where is it hosted’ ▪️Enterprises and Governments are waking up to the risk associated with NOT hosting AI locally ▪️most AI solutions operating in the region are actually NOT compliant 🤯 A company is made of the collective know-how and intelligence of its people, which translates into first party data and products. You wouldn’t outsource all of that blindly to a team abroad. Yet this is what is happening with AI. As AI models get commoditized, sovereignty becomes the most important feature of your AI stack. Proud to help build Napster into the first true sovereign agentic AI solution for the UAE, KSA and beyond ✌🏼

Last week I was on FINTECH.TV to talk about: ▪️ how the UAE manages to compete globally in AI net talent migration 🇦🇪 ▪️ what businesses in the UAE get wrong about AI adoption and how to fix it ▪️ how to go beyond the proof of concept and deploy AI in production to see actual ROI ▪️ the INSANE risks taken by companies letting employees share data and trade secrets with AI ▪️ why Sovereign AI (AI models hosted in the country) is the solution and how @napster_corp is ideally positioned to support local companies implementing AI at scale ✌🏼

One man just took a 5x World Champion down but the real winner is AI

Why I’m bullish GOOG

@SuperChampsHQ launched their own AI agent, Kigu who already racked 600K followers and 20M+ views 🤯 Kigu is the first autonomous AI game streamer promotiong its OWN game, and $CHAMP 24/7 🔥 A new way to think about marketing?

Thank you @inc_arabia 🇦🇪🙌🏻🔥
