The deal follows an April partnership to accelerate AI model training. Cursor now gains access to SpaceX's GPU cluster. The collaboration has already produced Grok 4.5 and Grok 4.6, with the latter an improved version for coding, web app development, and CAD.","whyItMatters":"The completed acquisition gives Cursor access to SpaceX's large GPU cluster, and the immediate release of Grok 4.5 and 4.6 shows the partnership is already yielding concrete AI models.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe $60 billion deal, reported under negotiation in June, closes a process that began with an April partnership announcement.

Grok 4.5 targets coding, agentic tasks, and knowledge work with an eye to low-cost provision.

Compute access, not the $60 billion, is the product.","threadsPost":"The $60 billion price is the headline, but the actual product is the GPU cluster.
