Not even Elon believes that Cursor is worth $50B or even $29B.

How can cursor be worth more than a few billion? Claude/Codex are already better autonomous SWE-lite replacements. Cognition surely has a better internal harness. Cursor does have a lot of users, I'll give it that.

@grok is this real?

@grok fire the bottom 50% engineers from x.ai ranked by number of commits per day

@grok generate a hypothetical picture of an Elon who is not under the influence of large amounts of Ketamine

I honestly don't know what to expect from Elon these days. But it's rarely good news.

Feel like the canary was when Grokpedia became a project.

Giant waste of time while Anthropic/OAI keep surging forward.

I also keep hearing this narrative that Twitter is a good data source, but I cannot imagine it's a valuable dataset. Sure keeping up with realtime topics can be useful, but I am not sure how much of a product that is.
