Elon Musk's xAI Faces NAACP Lawsuit Over Pollution
📰 What Happened
The NAACP sent a legal notice to Elon Musk's company xAI saying they plan to sue. The group says xAI is breaking clean air laws at a data center in Mississippi. The company uses dozens of gas-burning turbines that create pollution in nearby communities.
💡 Why It Matters
People who live near the data center have to breathe dirty air from the turbines. This is the second lawsuit xAI faces over pollution from its data centers. The legal action could force the company to change how it runs its facilities or face big fines.
🔮 What Happens Next
xAI must respond to the legal notice and either fix the pollution problem or face a lawsuit. The company may need to get proper permits or stop using the gas-burning turbines.
