Will In-N-Out Burger be coming to Sumner County? Here's what we know
In-N-Out Burger, the iconic California-based burger chain known for serving up burgers and fries Animal Style, has its sights set on Sumner County.
A site plan and a request to add the restaurant to a planned development are on the Hendersonville Planning agenda in March, Hendersonville Planning Director Keith Free said. He says the West Coast burger giant is looking to build at 100 Anderson Lane North in Hendersonville.
"I am always excited about a new business coming to Hendersonville, particularly a business with a history of community generosity. In addition to competing for restaurant customers currently in Hendersonville, In-N-Out Burger will bring more people to Hendersonville to increase our total sales tax revenue," Hendersonville Mayor Jamie Clary said.
Other city officials are excited by the possibility, Hendersonville Public Information Officer Casey LaMarr said.
"We are thrilled they have chosen Hendersonville and know many residents are very excited about this possibility. I look forward to seeing their presentation to planning in March," LaMarr said.
The Hendersonville Planning Commission is scheduled to meet at 6:30 p.m. on March 4 at Hendersonville City Hall.

Other In-N-Out Burger locations may soon begin popping up across Middle Tennessee due to a massive expansion announced back in 2023. The brand announced a corporate hub for Franklin, in Middle Tennessee, in early 2024 with restaurants in the works for Goodlettsville, Antioch, Lebanon and Mt. Juliet.
Earlier this week, In-N-Out announced it would consolidate its California headquarters by closing its Irvine location, USA Today reported.

Meta Looks to Expand AI Development by Investing in Scale AI
This story was originally published on Social Media Today. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Social Media Today newsletter. Meta's reportedly looking to expand its AI infrastructure even further, by investing in AI startup Scale AI, which specializes in data labeling to facilitate AI model expansion. According to Bloomberg, Meta is in advanced talks to potentially invest up to $10 billion into the company, which Meta already works with as part of its expanded AI development. Originally founded in 2016, Scale AI has become a key provider of qualified data, which can help to improve AI system training significantly. Scale AI ensures that data sources are accurately labeled and annotated, essentially making sense of data input streams in order to improve the training process. According to research, this can significantly reduce AI training time, by feeding more valuable data sources to AI companies, reducing manual load on their part. And as noted, Scale AI already works with several major AI projects, including OpenAI and Meta, to assist in their current AI training process. Meta previously invested $1 billion in Scale's Series F funding round. An expanded partnership could give Zuck and Co. a significant advantage, by ensuring that it has exclusive access to Scale's evolving data classification tools, which could help to improve Meta's AI models significantly. This comes as Meta is also working to grow its data processing capacity, with the development of a 2 gigawatt data center, among various major infrastructure elements. Meta's also currently holds around 350,000 Nvidia H100 chips, which power its AI projects (both OpenAI and xAI have around 300k H100s), while it's also developing its own hardware for expanded AI development. Essentially, Meta's pushing hard to become the leader in the global AI race. And with expanded investment in key infrastructure tools like Scale AI, it's well on the way to leading the market on potential AI development. That could have major implications for Facebook, Instagram, and Meta's broader AI tools, including in VR environments and in wearables, moving forward.
