The federal government intervened Monday in a Clean Air Act lawsuit in which people in Memphis, Tennessee, and Southaven, Mississippi, are suing Elon Musk’s xAI over the health risks posed by the company’s unpermitted gas turbines.
The Department of Justice didn’t intervene on behalf of the people breathing dirty air, though: instead, it submitted an unprecedented motion backing xAI.
xAI’s massive Colossus 2 data center, in the Memphis area, was built primarily to train Grok models—new iterations of the AI that might be best known for calling itself “MechaHitler.” And it has onsite dozens of unpermitted gas turbines to serve its massive energy needs. Colossus 2’s power plant constitutes one of the largest industrial sources of smog-forming nitrogen oxides in the nation, able to emit well over 5,000 tons per year. People living near the site say they’re plagued with poor air quality and constant noise.
“I can’t live like this. I don’t really know what my options are other than to get out of there,” said Jason Haley, who lives near one of xAI’s Memphis-area sites, to the local Fox News affiliate. He described constant whirring noises from the data center. “But, with that being said, I don’t know who would be willing to purchase that house if they come and look at it and that’s what they’re hearing.”
“Grok’s continued operation and availability is a matter of paramount national security,” the filing said, especially “in the event of armed conflict”—adding that the Department of War used Grok to “deploy over 2,000 munitions to 2,000 distinct targets within 96 hours during Operation Epic Fury.”
I’m not surprised the DOJ is protecting a prolific generator of CSAM.
Translation: How much money Trump and his cronies have is important. The common people can go suck it.
Guillotines
how can we live without grok……….
AI is the Brawndo of this Idiocracy administration
Grok is a nazi pedophile LLM. Why the fuck is it being used for anything at all?
So all those towns that think AI data centers are bringing in tax revenues. Well…they’re losing tax revenues because:
1) people move out of that town
2) data centers employees are mostly remote because no one wants to work in a noisy building like that.
3) corporations don’t pay taxes.
When the government refuses to serve their people then it’s the responsibility of the people to take things into their own hands. (Do with that information as you will people of Memphis)
Preferred LLM of the KKK.
Why am I cursed to live on the dumbest timeline? I spend my days teaching kids how to read and count, why do I deserve this?
Wtf are these data centers doing that is more important than the survival of humanity?
The DOJ is an asslicking godless shitbucket full of asbestos and I hope they choke on Grok’s farts.
> “I can’t live like this. I don’t really know what my options are other than to get out of there,”
Yup. That’s exactly what they’re trying to do. Displace and disenfranchise.
You know, in a country with so many guns, it’s only a matter of time before people realize these data centers are very vulnerable to gun fire. It isn’t like those cooling devices peppering the outside of the building (or those gas turbines) were designed to stop bullets. If people started taking shots at the A/C units and the other infrastructure these centers rely on I suspect it would cause a massive problem for them very quickly.
These people are beyond saving. They’re obsession with AI I believe will truly be the downfall of human society
A lot of folks need to understand the conditions we had and the reasons we had things like EPA and Superfund act.
I feel now is the time for the rest of the world to have a vote on American politics. We’re all suffering because of the idiots you guys are suffering. Maybe the rest of us to a lesser extent. But the global markets are being ravaged because of these idiots.
I don’t get how anyone can possibly think that having the 1% with most of the money will be a good idea. They don’t spend it. Give it to everyone and let us spend and fund our countries through taxes. which these scumbags don’t pay, at least to the same degree the rest of us do.
The corruption isn’t even subtle
These people need to be removed.
Thes people are lunatics
Grok stinks. It’s terrible for software development, legal research, or basically anything where factual accuracy is required.
The same Grok that lead to the deaths of over two hundred schoolgirls?
I can’t think of another country stupid enough to use Grok in any official capacity, never mind a military one, and my government seem fine with Palantir.
I honestly see a lot of things happening now as crimes against humanity.
So this is the new messaging. Bezos saying water for AI is more important than water for humans and mow Grok is more important than clean air. Wonder what the facebook goon is chine in with.

>Cameron Stanley, [the Pentagon’s AI chief](https://www.fastcompany.com/91550791/cameron-stanley-is-pushing-the-pentagon-to-become-ai-first), added in a declaration that “If xAI is hindered from continuing to improve and upgrade Grok…DoW’s ability to meet its national security mission and keep pace with adversaries will be impaired.”
The most powerful military on the planet needs AI to help with killing people.
