Musk's xAI spends $400 million to build a supercomputing center in Memphis, but faces power shortages

PANews reported on April 2 that according to Business Insider, Musk's AI company xAI is building a supercomputing center "Colossus" in Memphis, Tennessee. It has invested about $406 million so far and plans to expand to deploy 1 million GPUs in the future. However, due to limited grid capacity, only 150 megawatts of electricity was approved, far below demand. xAI has enabled natural gas power generation to supplement 250 megawatts and is seeking new land for capacity expansion. The project may eventually cost more than $27 billion, marking Memphis as a global AI computing power center.
