Tennessee is making big moves in tech, and the Colossus XAI facility is proof, housing the world's most powerful supercomputer in a mind-blowing 750,000-square-foot space (and growing). This beast runs on 300 megawatts and is set to scale past a million chips, making it a game-changer for AI and computing. But that’s just the start, we’re also talking about energy efficiency breakthroughs, why Tennessee’s business-friendly setup is a magnet for projects like this, and the wild speed of its construction (122 days!). Plus, a look at private equity shaking things up in the Permian, BP rethinking renewables, and somehow, the carnivore diet debate sneaks into the mix. If you like tech, energy, or just seeing how industries collide in unexpected ways, this one's got plenty to chew on.
