A Monday New York Times report claims US intelligence agencies fear United Arab Emirates-based G42, or Group 42, may be supplying China with advanced technologies and genetic data describing millions of people.
To power its AI research and development, G42 tapped California-based Cerebras Systems to develop a $100 million supercomputer cluster named Condor Galaxy. Cerebras plans to build a total of nine facilities for G42 at a combined cost of $900 million.
According to the NYT investigation, US officials and intelligence agencies, including the folks at the CIA, believe G42 is trying keep its involvement with Beijing under wraps. Uncle Sam has also issued warnings about the organization's work with large Chinese companies including Huawei.
