    Judge rejects xAI request to dismiss NAACP lawsuit over data center pollution

    What it is
    A federal judge rejected a request by xAI to dismiss a lawsuit filed against it by the NAACP. The lawsuit accuses the company of violating the Clean Air Act at its data center.
    How it works
    The lawsuit claims xAI installed and operated gas turbines to power its data center without getting the required air permits. xAI argued the turbines are mobile and exempt from permits, but the judge rejected this argument.

    Blackstone predicts Anthropic will receive a junk credit rating after its IPO

    What it is
    Anthropic is expected to receive a high junk credit rating from credit rating agencies after its initial public offering. This prediction comes from the investment firm Blackstone, which previously expected the company to get a higher investment-grade rating.
    How it works
    A junk rating means credit agencies view lending to the company as speculative. This rating will make it more difficult and expensive for Anthropic to borrow money to fund its large business expenses.
