SpaceX Buys AI Coding Startup Cursor for $60 Billion
Digest more
SpaceX will buy Cursor parent Anysphere in a $60B all-stock deal, giving Elon Musk’s company a major AI coding asset days after its IPO.
Not everyone believes SpaceX is overvalued, though. Investment bank Oppenheimer and Co. raised its projection for SpaceX stock from $190 to $250 following the acquisition disclosure. Analyst Timothy Horan said that SpaceX "owns every layer of the AI stack, giving it cost and quality advantages," and that Cursor is a major component of that.
The deal signals SpaceX's growing focus on artificial intelligence and software development as well as rocket building.
Elon Musk's rocket company announced on Tuesday that it had exercised its option to buy AI coding startup Cursor for $60 billion.
