The NAACP has filed a Mississippi lawsuit against Elon Musk’s xAI.
It alleges that 27 unpermitted gas turbines powering the Colossus data center violate the Clean Air Act.
The group says the turbines are polluting and disrupting a nearby Black working-class neighborhood.
The case could force xAI to change how it powers its AI infrastructure and spotlight environmental injustice in data center development.
