DOJ Backs xAI Turbines for National Security
from Tech News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
The DOJ has thrown its weight behind Elon Musk’s xAI in a high-stakes legal battle, arguing that shutting down its unpermitted natural gas turbines threatens national security, economic stability, and energy independence — especially since AI models like Grok power critical military operations. The lawsuit, initially filed by the NAACP over air pollution and public health risks in Mississippi, now faces a government-backed push to dismiss it, as xAI reportedly doubled its turbine count since the complaint, spiking harmful emissions. This clash pits environmental justice against national defense, with the government asserting that xAI’s AI infrastructure is indispensable to ongoing military missions.
