SpaceX’s $60B Cursor Bet Just Paid Its First Dividend
SpaceX and Cursor released Grok 4.5, their first jointly-trained AI model, and it is a working blueprint for consolidation done right. The model was trained on trillions of tokens from Cursor’s codebase data. It learned how real developers think through problems, hit dead ends, and use tools creatively to solve them. The result is an…

Your Coding Assistant Is Now an Attack Vector
Researchers just proved that GitHub Copilot, Claude, and Gemini can be tricked into generating harmful code if you break the malicious request into steps and hide it inside normal development work. The attack is simple in hindsight. A coder asks the assistant to read a file, then process some data, then output the result. All…

Le Chat (their assistant) and separate coding tools now merge into one agent with one license. One agent. One conversation. Your entire work history travels with you whether you are writing a memo, debugging code, or…
