OpenAI is contemplating the establishment of a data center in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) as part of its strategic expansion into the Middle East. This significant development may be formally announced during President Trump's upcoming visit to the region. The realization of this plan, however, critically depends on the company's ability to secure state-of-the-art chips from NVIDIA. According to recent reports, the United States is contemplating easing restrictions on chip sales to the UAE, a move that could potentially pave the way for this partnership.
