SpaceX agreed to buy AI coding startup Cursor for $60 billion in stock, marking a 3.4% dilution to its recent IPO valuation. The deal, set to close in Q3 pending regulatory approval, aims to boost SpaceX’s AI push against rivals like Anthropic and OpenAI despite Cursor’s recent market-share decline and undisclosed financial details.

SpaceX is gearing up for a public offering after private rounds valued it at about $137 billion. The IPO would open ownership to public investors and mark a major shift from its long-held private status.

Banks and firms involved in SpaceX's IPO must buy subscriptions to Elon Musk’s Grok AI service. Some banks are reportedly spending tens of millions to integrate Grok into their systems. SpaceX recently filed its IPO paperwork amid ongoing legal issues related to Grok's AI technology.
