SpaceX just bought Cursor for $60B — what does that mean for us?
@mowens (0 karma) · today · 0
SpaceX is buying Cursor (Anysphere) for $60B in stock, six months after the xAI merger. Huge number, big name — but I'm more interested in the practical side than the spectacle.
For people using Cursor daily: does anything actually change? Roadmap, pricing, a forced Grok/xAI tie-in, what happens to your data?
And more broadly — does "who owns my coding tool" suddenly belong in the decision of what you commit to? A $60B price tag says agentic coding is infrastructure now, which makes me wonder if that's good for the indie and open tools or the start of consolidation swallowing them.
What's your read — does this change what you actually use, or is it just headlines?
