SpaceXAI pats itself on the back for removing temporary turbines in Memphis under agreed order over the next year: "We care deeply about being good neighbors"

xAI and SpaceX have agreed to remove 69 mobile turbines powering their Mississippi data centers over the next 11 months, following an agreement with the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality. The company plans to switch to power from a new 1.2 GW plant under construction and will invest in emission control technologies for the turbines. This action comes amid ongoing environmental and ethical disputes regarding the turbines and the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure.
