MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Artificial intelligence company xAI said Tuesday it will power up its second Colossus supercomputer in Memphis in a few weeks.

Colussus 2 is located in the Whitehaven area of Memphis.

The company released this statement:

“In mid-February, we broke ground at our new data center at Tulane in Shelby County, Tennessee. We have begun deploying the initial phase of computing infrastructure.

This initiative includes the installation of an additional 110,000 NVIDIA GB200 GPUs, powered by a diverse array of energy sources, similar to Colossus. We are building similar redundancies for Colossus 2 that mimic the success we’ve seen at Colossus.

“This includes Tesla Megapacks to provide critical support during peak demand periods, ensuring a stable power supply while safeguarding Shelby County residents from potential blackouts. We expect to power on this facility within the next few weeks. As is the case at Electrolux, we are excited to be a valuable partner to Memphis.”
