Middle East Sovereign Wealth Funds Pullback Could Drain Hundreds of Billions From AI Boom, Warns Tech Investor
Jack Selby, managing director of Peter Thiel's family office Thiel Capital, warns that a potential pullback by Middle East sovereign wealth funds could drain hundreds of billions from AI investments. Middle East investors account for about 25% of global AI investments committed over the next five years. If the Iran war continues and UAE/Saudi divert funds to rebuilding, data centers and tech companies could face significant impact. Oracle, Nvidia and Cisco are building a 5-gigawatt OpenAI campus in the UAE, while Microsoft plans $15 billion in UAE investment by 2029. Selby compares the AI boom to the dot-com bubble, warning it could be orders of magnitude larger when it busts.
