Because all space companies need a social network and an ai coding company. It just makes sense. And your pension needs to buy this very logical company because it’s large enough to be in the index.
SpaceX is 80% an AI company. More now, after acquiring Cursor. The space stuff is only the reception desk.
SpaceX is 100% a bullshit company. FTFY
This is the sort of comment where I wish Lemmy had the option to block everyone who upvoted it.
edit and I wish the ones who downvote this also blocked me
“We do social media, rockets, and AI” Yes this company is a very logical well thought out entity who’s losing $3 for every $1 we make. We are growing only at 33% a year, yet are valued at 25x other companies with better growth and actual strategies . If you believe this shit I’ve got a bridge to sell you.
SpaceX is an infrastructure company. Deeply dependent on government good will and contracts. It leases it’s data center compute to actual AI companies.
This truly is the weirdest timeline. The only division of this shit company that brings in any money is the space and rockets division. However, the technology divisions are a money pit.
brings in any money is the space and rockets division
Not even that. Only StarLink brings in profit.
Isn’t the only part of company which is profitable space stuff?

“Cursor, help me figure out why this request is failing with a CORS error.”
Thinking…
Reviewing sources…
- “Elon Musk on X”
- “Elon Musk Twitter acquisition” townhall recording
- “Programming best practices” and “Elon Musk”
Done.
It looks like everything needs to be thrown out and redone. The whole stack. It’s not good, it’s bloated, it was made by overpaid salary workers.
“What’s wrong with the stack?”
The whole stack. Just the stack. All of it.
This is just hog wash.
They are buying it for 60bn worth of SPCX Class A stock. This is Cursor’s board taking anything they can get for a company that has no future. Not a criticism against Cursor, but their market is standardising on Claude Code, and their value would rapidly head towards zero.
Class A stock has no voting rights. This is the investors of Cursor literally saying “being on Musk’s train to the moon is literally better than whatever future we have right now”.
There goes all the money raised in the IPO.
I bet it will be a stock deal.
It’s a stock deal. At $2.5 Trillion valuation I’d say this is chump change.
AFAIK it’s less than 10%. But it’s a start. 🤣🤣🤣
The IPO reportedly raised $85 billion
Valuation (which is where that “over $1 trillion” comes from) is a different thing entirely
Yes of course you are right, my bad.
The 1 trillion is an extrapolation.
Nazis buying up more shit. Fuck all these clowns. Free Luigi.
Why can’t he download cursor for free? What an idiot.
My cursor came free with my operating system, although I did have to buy my own mouse.
Wow, cursor costed more to Musk than twitter
Yet somehow less valuable. Isn’t it just a fork of VSCode with more AI tools built in?
Yeah that’s hard for me to understand.
Sure would like some food, affordable housing, and healthcare…
is a validation of the soaring interest in AI-assisted coding.
Sure, buddy. Whatever makes you feel better.
And they’re about to buy Tesla for an ungodly sum, sweeping another failure under the rug, this time with every index fund holder bailing them out.
Didn’t fElon already try buying his way to an AI company then ruined it by being who he is? [searching] Yeah, he bought talent to put together the stupidly named “xAI” to make the offensively wrong did-you-even-read-the-book “Grok” which after three short years is so bad it’s not even on most LLM performance charts. Who knows, maybe fElon’s pedo pal in the WH will take out Anthropic, Google will give up for no reason, and the Chinese will also give up for no reason. Then everyone on Earth will spend more money than they have on Grok. $22,000,000,000,000 in revenue, EZ PZ!
We are moving away from cursor. Got too expensive
