Summary
SpaceX has announced it will acquire Anysphere, the parent company of AI coding platform Cursor, for $60 billion. The deal is expected to close in the third quarter pending regulatory approval, with Cursor becoming a SpaceX subsidiary. This follows SpaceX's recent IPO and a prior agreement allowing Cursor to use xAI's Colossus supercomputer, reducing its reliance on Anthropic and OpenAI models. SpaceXAI and Cursor have been jointly training a model that will be released in both Cursor and Grok Build.
