Elon Musk's AI company, xAI, has recently sparked controversy in Memphis, Tennessee. The company is building a massive supercomputer in the area to support its operations. However, since the supercomputer became operational last summer, community residents and environmental activists have stated that the facility has become one of the main sources of air pollution locally.
