Elon Musk posted on X on November 1, 2026, that other supercompute projects cannot reach their goals while SpaceX is already achieving his.

He did not name the projects or give measures for the claim.

A quoted post says SpaceXAI's Colossus 2 in Memphis has roughly 1.11 million H100 equivalents, with more Blackwell clusters expected by mid-2027. A later post by indigo says Musk confirmed Colossus 2's scale, citing about 220,000 GB300s in each of two clusters, a third planned at the same size by late November, and about 200,000 more GPUs in December focused on inference. indigo says the year-end target is about 1.2 million Blackwell-series GPUs and cites Epoch AI for about 1.1 million H100-equivalent compute and nearly 1GW of power. The reports do not show an independent check of these figures, and the indigo post does not attribute the confirmation to a Musk statement that it quotes.

    Elon Musk confirms Colossus 2 data center scale in Memphis, targeting about 1.2 million Blackwell GPUs

    AIElon Musk has confirmed the scale of Colossus 2 in Memphis, according to indigo's post, which reports about 220,000 GB300s each in Macroharder and Minihard. Gun Range is planned at the same size by late November, and Spam is expected to add about 200,000 GPUs in December, focused on inference. The post says the year-end target is about 1.2 million Blackwell-series GPUs, and cites Epoch AI for about 1.1 million H100-equivalent compute and nearly 1GW of power.
