This is what happens when you give the world's biggest nerds a chance at branding
Briefly

Mark Zuckerberg revealed plans for massive data centers in Ohio and Louisiana, reflecting Meta's ambition in AI. The centers, Prometheus in Ohio and Hyperion in Louisiana, are described as enormous, with Prometheus covering a significant portion of Manhattan's footprint. The naming process typically involves a company's brand team or a naming agency. Experts suggest that the names may appeal to a geek culture but might pose challenges for the general public, which may find them hard to spell and unfamiliar. Some names draw from sci-fi or mythology, like Prometheus, representing a purposeful choice.
"just one of these covers a significant part of the footprint of Manhattan."
"Typically, the process is generally for most naming projects to go through a company's brand team, though that doesn't always happen."
"These are relatively nerdy names, or geek names that geeks-and I don't mean that in a derogatory way-are very comfortable with."
"Prometheus is the Greek god of fire, known for stealing the resource from the gods and giving it to humans."
