Cursor Is Reinventing Itself as SpaceX Deal Looms

Cursor, the coding startup set to be acquired by SpaceX for $60 billion later this year, has been mapping out a major transformation.

Michael Truell, Cursor’s CEO, told staff in a companywide meeting in May that the company aims to become a top-tier AI model developer, according to three people who heard the comments, a shift from its roots of specializing in coding. Cursor has also accelerated hiring in sales and growth roles, though it has made smaller cuts elsewhere.

Hermes + Qwen3.6-27B: как я собрал первую линию email-поддержки

Я решил в качестве эксперимента собрать первую линию email-поддержки вокруг локальной LLM — без файн-тюнинга и попыток сразу заменить всю службу поддержки. Взял Hermes как агентную оболочку, развернул Qwen3.6-27B на RTX 5090, арендованной на GPUGO, подключил почту и базу знаний, а между моделью и клиентом поставил маршрутизацию, фильтры риска и ручную модерацию спорных ответов.В статье покажу архитектуру проекта и насколько жизнеспособной оказалась такая система на тестах.
