Artificial intelligence startup xAI has acquired a 1M SF site in Memphis, Tennessee, for a new data center to expand its high-performance computing cluster in the city. 

After opening the first data center hosting its “Colossus” supercomputer in Memphis last year, Elon Musk-owned xAI announced Friday it is planning to build the project's second data center, this time in the city’s Whitehaven district. As first reported by the Daily Memphian, work on the site and electrical substation needed to support it could begin as soon as this week.
