SpaceX Completes Its $60 Billion Cursor Acquisition

SpaceX has made a stunning $60 billion bet that artificial intelligence, not rockets, is the future of the company, acquiring the AI coding startup Cursor in a deal that signals Elon Musk's dramatic pivot away from space exploration and toward the race for AI dominance. The acquisition, covered extensively by major financial outlets, marks one of the largest tech deals of the year and raises urgent questions about whether Musk is abandoning his stated mission to make humanity multiplanetary. Industry analysts are divided over whether Musk has identified a transformative opportunity or made a catastrophic miscalculation that could reshape—or even topple—one of America's most valuable private companies.
