Elon’s xAI gets sequestered in Memphis 🎸
Elon Musk’s xAI recently announced a series B funding round of $6 billion in May.
Not far behind that, on June 5th, the company announced that it will deploy some of those funds to build a “Gigafactory of Compute” in the city of Memphis, Tennessee.
A surprising selection considering the city is known as a logistics hub, with FedEx being headquartered there.
Musk moves quick. Yesterday we spotted the first two roles being hired in the city. Both focussed on security.
It is the first time we have posted any positions in Memphis. Any positions we have posted historically in Tennessee have been in Nashville, and they have appeared sporadically.
With cost of living skyrocketing in nearby Nashville, and also in Austin, Tesla’s hometown, it will be interesting to see if Memphis heads down the same path of gentrification if more technology companies move in.
