xAI’s Dirty Data Drama 🌫️

Elon Musk’s xAI and its Memphis data center just got hit with a legal threat, and it smells like trouble (literally).

🚨 Breaking News:
xAI allegedly ran 35+ gas turbines without permits, risking thousands of tons of pollution in an already smog-heavy city.

⚡ Wire Simplified –

• xAI installed turbines that could emit 2,000+ tons of pollution each year

• They didn’t get air permits from local or federal agencies

• Memphis already has some of the worst air in the country

• A watchdog flew drones to confirm xAI had 35+ active turbines

• xAI says it’s removing some, but new ones popped up as recently as last week

✔️ Straight to the Point:
xAI’s data center cut corners on pollution rules. Now they’re getting sued, and Memphis is breathing the consequences.
