Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

xAI has applied for permits for the first set of turbines. But it won’t install pollution controls unless and until its permits are approved. At that point, xAI will be “the lowest-emitting facility in the country,” allegedly.

Musk probably sees gassing black people as a free bonus for installing the turbines, I strongly doubt he's installing pollution controls.
