AI for GCC – Sunday Edition

Good morning and happy Sunday.

This week the Gulf region took significant steps forward in the global AI race. From Abu Dhabi’s launch of K2 Think, a low-cost reasoning model, to new pacts on digital policy, sustainable data centres, reskilling initiatives, and sovereign AI adoption, the UAE and Saudi Arabia are making AI part of their national identity.

Why this matters for the Gulf

The news in this edition shows how the region is moving from being a consumer of AI technology to a creator and policymaker. With local innovation, regional cooperation, and sovereign control, the Gulf is setting the stage for a more independent, secure, and competitive digital future.
