The artificial intelligence market continues to deliver surprises. Elon Musk made an unexpected move by acquiring Anysphere — the developer of the popular AI programming tool Cursor — for $60 billion. The payment was made in SpaceX shares, and this deal, in my firm belief, deals a serious blow to one of Anthropic's key revenue sources right before its long-awaited stock market debut.
