xAI, Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company, has received approval from the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality to operate 41 methane gas turbines at its 'Colossus 2' data center in Southaven, Mississippi, despite significant public opposition from the local community and environmental advocates. The expansion will significantly increase the data center's power demands and contribute to air pollution concerns in the area.
