"SpaceXAI and @cursor_ai are now working closely together to create the world’s best coding and knowledge work AI.

The combination of Cursor’s leading product and distribution to expert software engineers with SpaceX’s million H100 equivalent Colossus training supercomputer will allow us to build the world’s most useful models.

Cursor has also given SpaceX the right to acquire Cursor later this year for $60 billion or pay $10 billion for our work together."

reading this thread, I seem to be the only cursor user on earth on the free tier using tab-completes.

Good, I needed a reason to cancel my Cursor subscription.

I associate Musk with being user hostile, unreliable, meme oriented and disruptive in the worst sense; I’d like my work tools without that please.

shoe company goes AI, rocket company goes AI, it is market signaling.

That would make more sense if SpaceX hadn't absorbed xAi just 2 months ago. The rocket company already went AI. The signal was sent already. This is just a bad business decision.

Can't wait for this idiotic bullshit bubble to burst.

A rocket company buying a so so overvalued coding AI company is a joke even worse than the 2000s internet pet food companies were
