May 16 (UPI) -- The United States and the United Arab Emirates have agreed to form an Artificial Intelligence alliance.
The U.S. Department of Commerce announced in a statement that the United States will launch a one-gigawatt AI data center, which in turn will be a part of a five-gigawatt "UAE-U.S. artificial intelligence technology cluster" in the UAE capital city of Abu Dhabi.
The cluster will manage the region's computation needs that will operate under American-level security standards and be open to the distribution of new AI infrastructure that can serve on an international level.
A group will be formed between the countries within 30 days of its announcement and will "work together to make more efficient the process of inward investments into the United States by UAE Investment Funds," which also involves UAE investment in American digital infrastructure.
