HUMAIN and Applied Intuition Announce Strategic Collaboration to Deploy Physical AI Across Saudi Arabia, Starting with Autonomous Trucking The collaboration will lay the foundation for autonomy at national scale, beginning with the world’s largest autonomous trucking network and expanding into robotaxis, ports, mining, manufacturing, agriculture, construction, and other industries.
HUMAIN is now delivering production AI compute in Saudi Arabia powered by AMD Instinct™ MI355X GPUs, AMD EPYC™ CPUs and Cisco Silicon One-based AI networking to deliver the performance, scale and resilience necessary for next-generation workloads. AMD, Cisco and HUMAIN plan to deploy up to 250 MW of AI infrastructure as part of the next phase of the buildout beginning in 2027.
The collaboration brings together KORA’s operating-system and edge AI expertise with HUMAIN’s capabilities across AI models, agentic technologies, enterprise platforms, infrastructure and applications. HUMAIN OS is planned to be commercially available in 2027. The partnership is based on a shared view that artificial intelligence should move deeper into the computing stack — from an application running on top of the desktop to intelligence engineered directly into the operating system. AI cannot simply be another application sitting on top of the desktop. Intelligence has to become part of the operating system itself. Together, we are building from the operating-system layer upward and rethinking what the personal computer can become when intelligence is part of the architecture from the beginning: from applications to intent, from intent to intelligence, and from intelligence to action.”

Data Dynamics, a global leader in data management, announced Enterprise 2.0.5’s general availability at LEAP 2026. The release closes a gap entities hit while scaling AI: models pointed at unmapped data, agents granted standing access to content, and compliance teams proving control ‘after the fact’. As of 2026, 114 countries have enacted national data protection and privacy laws, touching 3 in every 4 citizens globally. An example of this is Saudi Arabia’s PDPL, enforced by the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA), carries 48 enforcement decisions. SDAIA also sets the Kingdom’s AI strategy, so data and AI governance sit under one regulator, and the cost of inaction is rising on both fronts.

Japan is expanding its fight against investment fraud with a new system that uses artificial intelligence to spot warning signs earlier. The Consumer Affairs Agency announced the package on September 1. It will analyze consumer complaints for language and patterns linked to fraudulent schemes and failing businesses. The package says AI will supplement existing keyword searches and support earlier alerts, investigations and enforcement when complaint data indicate serious risks. The AI system will examine about 900,000 consultation records each year in PIO-NET, Japan’s national consumer complaint database. It will compare new complaints with contexts and key phrases drawn from earlier cases. The system will look for solicitation methods, business structures and early signs of collapse. It can also flag common patterns across multiple operators, even when a complaint does not explicitly describe a confirmed financial loss.
