Plans by Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta to build an AI data center in the US that runs on nuclear power were thwarted in part because a rare species of bee was discovered on land earmarked for the project, according to people familiar with the matter.
Zuckerberg had planned to strike a deal with an existing nuclear power plant operator to provide emissions-free electricity for a new data center supporting his artificial intelligence ambitions. However, the potential deal faced multiple complications including environmental and regulatory challenges, these people said.
Go bees!

I love bees.
Zuckerberg: I want a nuclear-powered data center!
Bees: Nooo
Okay, just this one time ever, I’ll say yay bees. As long as they remain several hundred miles away from me.
There is a great spot for this at around 90°N or 90°S
Bees NUTS
