NAACP 对 xAI 数据中心污染的诉讼继续推进
联邦法官驳回 xai 的动议，允许 naacp 指控 xai 未获得许可而运营其孟菲斯 colossus 数据中心，引发人们对空气污染和环境正义的担忧。
a federal judge denied xai's motion to dismiss an naacp lawsuit that accuses the company of failing to obtain necessary permits for its colossus data center outside memphis. the lawsuit, filed by the southern environmental law center on behalf of the naacp, claims xai installed and operated at least 35 combustion turbines without the required preconstruction or operating air permits, violating the clean air act. xai had argued that the turbines are exempt from permitting requirements because they are mobile, but the judge rejected this claim. the naacp's director of environmental and climate justice, abre' connor, stated that this is 'another important victory in our effort to hold xai accountable.' this case may have implications for data center regulations and environmental justice.
