'America's AI Arsenal Just Went Live': AI Insider Briefs Public on Secret Supercomputer Built by Musk
BALTIMORE, June 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A newly surfaced report from bestselling author and tech insider James Altucher outlines the existence of a massive U.S.-based artificial intelligence weapon — one that could redefine America's global standing in the AI arms race. According to Altucher, the project — code-named Project Colossus — is being built by Elon Musk's company xAI, in coordination with recent policy changes made by the Trump administration. Housed in a low-profile facility in Memphis, Tennessee, Altucher says this machine is already operational — and growing more powerful by the day. 'The Fastest Supercomputer on the Planet' The briefing claims the facility is equipped with 200,000 cutting-edge AI chips, making it the most powerful computing center in the Western Hemisphere. 'It contains not just one or two… but 200,000 units of Nvidia's all-powerful AI chips… making it the most advanced AI facility known to man.' 'The fastest supercomputer on the planet.' — Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO Altucher notes that Musk plans to expand this further in the coming weeks, with rumors of additional hardware that could multiply its power tenfold. Trump Cleared the Runway The report links the timing of Project Colossus to a major political shift. On Day 1 of his second term, Donald Trump reversed Biden-era restrictions on AI development. 'In one of his FIRST acts as President… Donald Trump overturned Executive Order #14110.' Altucher claims this decision allowed developers like Musk to operate 'without red tape or delay' — accelerating America's path toward dominance in the next generation of AI systems. Altucher: This Is 'Artificial Superintelligence' Altucher describes this moment not as another software release — but a seismic shift in how technology operates. 'This second wave of ARTIFICIAL SUPERINTELLIGENCE… Will rival all of the great innovations of the past. Electricity… the wheel… even the discovery of fire.' His report urges Americans to understand what's unfolding — not just in Silicon Valley, but in unmarked warehouses like the one now powering Project Colossus.

A former IBM consultant and Wall Street technologist, he now focuses on breaking down emerging tech developments for a general audience.

'AI 2.0 Has Arrived': James Altucher Warns of Major U.S. AI Shift from Inside Musk's New Supercomputer Facility
BALTIMORE, June 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a newly released briefing, tech entrepreneur and bestselling author James Altucher reveals details of an advanced artificial intelligence project quietly developed by Elon Musk — with the backing of the U.S. government. According to Altucher's report, the U.S. has entered what he calls a 'second wave' of artificial intelligence — and at the center of it is Project Colossus, a secretive facility operated by Musk's xAI out of Memphis, Tennessee. Unlike anything the public has seen before, Project Colossus is designed to scale beyond current AI tools and into a new phase Altucher refers to as Artificial Superintelligence — or AI 2.0. A Quiet Presidential Push Altucher points to a key moment that set everything in motion: the repeal of Biden-era regulations on AI development. 'In one of his FIRST acts as President… Donald Trump overturned Executive Order #14110.' The executive reversal, Altucher says, cleared the path for Musk to accelerate his most ambitious project yet. Inside Project Colossus Altucher claims Musk's supercomputer is already live, housed in a discreet facility loaded with more than 200,000 high-performance AI chips. 'Right here, inside this warehouse in Memphis, Tennessee… lies a massive supercomputer Musk calls 'Project Colossus.'' He also reports that further upgrades are coming within weeks — including the addition of next-generation hardware that could dramatically increase Colossus' capabilities. From Chatbots to Conscious Machines? According to Altucher, most people are still thinking in terms of consumer-facing AI — like ChatGPT. But this next generation, he says, is something entirely different. 'AI 2.0… gives that knowledge to intelligent machines that I believe will solve our problems for us.' He warns that a major upgrade could be revealed as early as July 1, marking what he calls a 'breakthrough moment' for American AI leadership. About James Altucher James Altucher is a computer scientist, entrepreneur, and bestselling author. He previously helped develop IBM's Deep Blue supercomputer and built early AI-based trading systems on Wall Street. His latest work explores the rapid emergence of Artificial Superintelligence and its implications for national strategy and technological control.

James Altucher: 'America Just Hit the AI Reset Button'
New briefing reveals how Trump and Musk are quietly building the most powerful artificial intelligence system in U.S. history — and why July 1 could mark a major turning point BALTIMORE, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a new briefing, tech entrepreneur and bestselling author James Altucher reveals a development he says will 'change America forever.' At the center of it is Project Colossus — a classified supercomputer initiative led by Elon Musk's xAI — and backed by sweeping support from President Donald Trump. A Presidential Reversal with Massive Implications Altucher says the shift began with one of Trump's first presidential actions in 2025. 'In one of his FIRST acts as President… Donald Trump overturned Executive Order #14110.' This decision reversed Biden-era restrictions on AI research, which Altucher claims had 'prevented us from unleashing its true power.' 'Trump also announced the LARGEST AI investment in history… Stargate… a massive, AI data center and infrastructure project.' Hidden Inside a Warehouse in Memphis Altucher's report reveals a facility in Tennessee that, until now, has gone largely unnoticed. 'Right here, inside this warehouse in Memphis, Tennessee… lies a massive supercomputer Musk calls 'Project Colossus.'' 'It contains not just one or two… but 200,000 units of Nvidia's all-powerful AI chips… making it the most advanced AI facility known to man.' 'The fastest supercomputer on the planet.' — Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO July 1: 'When It All Changes' According to Altucher, time is short. A critical update to Colossus is imminent. 'That's when I predict Elon could announce a major update to this new AI project. One that some say will essentially 10X its power – overnight.' Altucher refers to this moment as a 'second wave' of AI — what he calls: 'Artificial Superintelligence.' 'This second wave… will rival all of the great innovations of the past. Electricity… the wheel… even the discovery of fire.' A Warning… and a Milestone Altucher closes his briefing with a quote from Vladimir Putin to stress the stakes: 'Whoever becomes the leader in this sphere will become the ruler of the world.' — Vladimir Putin He believes Project Colossus may determine whether America leads — or falls behind — in the AI race.
