NAACP Demands Shutdown of Musk’s Polluting AI Hub
What's the story:
The NAACP is urging Memphis officials to shut down Elon Musk’s xAI data center in South Memphis, accusing it of running unpermitted gas turbines that pollute a nearby historically Black neighborhood with harmful chemicals.
Key Takeaways:
xAI’s Colossus data center runs gas turbines emitting pollutants above EPA limits, including formaldehyde and nitrogen oxides.
NAACP claims at least 35 turbines operated without permits, despite city officials’ past statements.
The center is near Boxtown, a historically Black community already facing high cancer risks.
The NAACP accuses local agencies of ignoring health concerns and allowing illegal operations.
Officials haven’t yet responded publicly to the NAACP’s call for an emergency shutdown.
Why It’s Important:
This highlights ongoing environmental justice issues, where powerful companies’ pollution disproportionately harms vulnerable communities, raising urgent calls for stricter oversight and action to protect public health.

Humans Out, AI In at Meta
What's the story:
Meta is shifting most of its privacy and safety checks on apps like Instagram and WhatsApp from humans to AI, speeding up updates but raising worries that automated systems might miss serious risks and harms.
Key Takeaways:
Up to 90% of risk assessments will be automated, replacing most human reviews.
Product teams fill out questionnaires and get instant AI decisions on risks.
Humans will only review projects with new or complex risks, but teams decide when that happens.
Critics warn engineers aren’t privacy experts and faster AI reviews could miss big problems.
Meta claims AI helps streamline decisions while humans handle tricky cases and audits.
Why It’s Important:
This shift shows how Meta is racing to launch new features quickly but could be sacrificing careful oversight, possibly leading to more privacy issues, harmful content, or other problems slipping through its apps.
