Abu Dhabi's Technology Innovation Institute and Nvidia (NVDA.O) have launched a joint research lab in the United Arab Emirates that will focus on developing next-generation AI models and robotics platforms, TII said on Monday.
The joint research hub is the first Nvidia AI Technology Center in the Middle East, TII said in a statement, combining its multidisciplinary research with the U.S. company's AI models and computing power, which are fuelling a global artificial intelligence boom.
