🏭 Elon Musk’s xAI allegedly uses illegal generators to power Colossus supercomputer facility
@TomsHardware

「 xAI’s Colossus supercomputer consumes about 150 MW of power when equipped with 100,000 H100 GPUs. More when it is upgraded to 200,000 processors.

Tom's Hardware · Elon Musk’s xAI allegedly uses 'illegal' generators to power Colossus supercomputer facilityBy Anton Shilov

New aerial surveillance footage obtained by the Southern #Environmental Law Center has found that Musk's #artificialIntelligence company, xAI, is using 35 #methane #gas generators to power its "Colossus" #supercomputer facility, the backbone of its flagship #Grok. That's 20 more generators than the 15 #xAI filed permits for, and 35 more than it was approved to use. #dataCenters #ai #musk #climate #law
