阿联酋新兴的人工智能投资公司MGX近日传出消息，正与知名人工智能研究实验室OpenAI就投资其芯片制造业务进行初步洽谈。这一举动表明，OpenAI创始人山姆·奥尔特曼构建自家芯片厂的计划可能正在加速推进。此前，关于OpenAI芯片厂的预期投资规模在媒体的报道中呈现出巨大差异，从数百亿美元到高达7万亿美元的估计不一而足。
据财联社报道，MGX公司于本周刚刚成立，由阿联酋人工智能和先进技术委员会（AIATC）设立，旨在重点投资半导体、人工智能基础设施以及核心技术和应用。这家新公司的基石合作伙伴包括主权财富基金穆巴达拉和阿布扎比的AI企业G42，显示出阿联酋在AI领域的雄心壮志和实质性布局。
如果MGX与OpenAI的谈判取得进展，这不仅将为OpenAI的芯片研发提供强有力的资金支持，也可能为全球AI芯片市场带来新的竞争格局。同时，阿联酋通过MGX的投资，有望进一步提升其在全球人工智能技术和基础设施领域的影响力。

Keywords: MGX investment, OpenAI chips, UAE AI
News Content: Reports have emerged that MGX, a newly established artificial intelligence investment firm in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), is in preliminary discussions with renowned AI research laboratory OpenAI about investing in its chip manufacturing operations. This development suggests that OpenAI’s founder, Sam Altman’s plans to build his own chip factory might be gaining momentum.
According to Caixin Global, MGX was set up just this week by the UAE’s Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Technologies Council (AIATC), with a focus on investing in semiconductors, AI infrastructure, and core technologies and applications. The company’s cornerstone partners include sovereign wealth fund Mubadala and Abu Dhabi’s AI firm G42, indicating the UAE’s ambitious and substantial foray into the AI domain.
Should the negotiations between MGX and OpenAI progress, this would not only provide strong financial backing for OpenAI’s chip development but also potentially reshape the global AI chip market dynamics. Moreover, the UAE, through MGX’s investment, is poised to enhance its influence in the global arena of AI technology and infrastructure.
