Plans by Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook, to build an AI data center in the United States powered by nuclear energy have been halted due to the discovery of a rare species of bee on the land earmarked for the project. The data center was to be constructed adjacent to a nuclear power plant. Environmental and regulatory hurdles arose after the bees were discovered by regulators, leading to the project's suspension.
