April 10, 2025

Saudi Arabia has cemented its position as a rising powerhouse in artificial intelligence, securing the top global ranking for women’s empowerment in AI, according to Stanford University’s AI Index Report 2025. The Kingdom is also making waves in AI job growth, talent attraction, and cutting-edge model development—key indicators of its broader push to dominate the global AI landscape.

AI Talent And Job Growth: A Strategic Push

Saudi Arabia’s aggressive investment in AI is paying off. The Kingdom now ranks third worldwide in AI job growth for 2024 and fourth in developing leading AI models. It stands alongside the United States, China, France, Canada, and South Korea as one of only seven nations producing advanced AI models—an impressive feat for a country rapidly scaling its digital economy.

A Rising AI Hub: Attracting Global Talent

Ranked eighth globally in AI talent attraction, Saudi Arabia is becoming a magnet for top-tier professionals. Strategic initiatives, a robust research ecosystem, and a business-friendly regulatory framework make the Kingdom an increasingly attractive destination for AI experts seeking opportunities in a fast-growing market.

Women At The Forefront Of AI

Perhaps the most striking achievement is Saudi Arabia’s global leadership in empowering women in AI, with the highest female-to-male ratio in the sector. This milestone is the result of targeted national policies that foster inclusion, skills development, and leadership opportunities for women in technology. Programs like “Elevate,” a partnership with Google Cloud designed to train over 25,000 women in AI and tech, are shaping a new generation of female AI leaders. Additional initiatives, including specialized training camps and capacity-building programs, are reinforcing the Kingdom’s commitment to gender diversity in STEM fields.

Saudi Arabia’s AI Vision: Scaling To Global Leadership

At the heart of Saudi Arabia’s AI dominance is the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA), which is spearheading national efforts to drive AI adoption. SDAIA’s strategy focuses on enhancing digital infrastructure, developing policy frameworks, and accelerating AI investment to position Saudi Arabia as a global leader in artificial intelligence. These moves align seamlessly with the ambitious goals of Vision 2030, which aims to transform the Kingdom into a knowledge-driven economy powered by innovation.

As Saudi Arabia continues its AI expansion, the message is clear: the Kingdom is not just participating in the AI revolution—it’s setting the pace.

New “Think” Button For More Complex Questions

Alongside unlimited text chats, Free and Go users will gain access to a new “Think” button, allowing them to use additional reasoning power for more complex queries.

OpenAI noted that separate usage limits will continue to apply to file uploads, image generation, voice features and other multimodal tools.

Faster Responses For Paid Subscribers

The update also brings improvements for ChatGPT Plus and Pro subscribers. They will receive access to GPT-5.6 Sol, an upgraded model designed for everyday tasks such as web research, planning, writing, decision-making and answering questions. According to OpenAI, the model delivers shorter, more robust responses.

The company noted that this version is separate from the GPT-5.6 Sol model used in Codex and Work, which remains unchanged. Plus and Pro subscribers will also receive a new thinking slider, allowing them to adjust how much reasoning the model applies before generating an answer, depending on the complexity of the task.

OpenAI Reports Fewer Errors

According to OpenAI’s internal testing, GPT-5.6 Luna produces 62% fewer factual errors than GPT-5.5 Instant, while GPT-5.6 Sol reduces factual errors by 68%.

The updated GPT-5.6 Sol model is available to Plus and Pro users starting today. The remaining features for Free and Go users will roll out throughout the week, with unlimited text chats and the new Think button becoming available next week.
