AI data center plans baffle small southern Colorado town

BluSky AI plans to build an AI data center near Walsenburg, Colorado, but local officials were unaware and expressed strong skepticism about the project's benefits and resource demands. While other towns like Nephi, Utah, have welcomed similar developments, Walsenburg's leadership foresees difficulties in providing utilities or support. Colorado legislators are also debating two bills related to data center development and energy use.
