The NAACP sent a notice of intent to sue, accusing Musk’s company of illegally installing gas turbines in Mississippi to power its Colossus 2 data center. Thermal images taken by drone show more than a dozen turbines running at the site without a permit, according to a Floodlight investigation.
TL;DR
- The NAACP intends to sue xAI for alleged illegal installation of gas turbines.
- The turbines are reportedly used to power xAI's Colossus 2 data center in Mississippi.
- Drone thermal images suggest more than a dozen turbines are operating without a permit.
- The NAACP's action is a response to potential pollution from the data center's operations.
