Four college students from MIT founded a company in 2022.


They created an AI programming tool called Cursor.

Describe what you want in plain language, and it writes the code for you.

Without spending a dollar on marketing,
their revenue reached one billion dollars annually by the end of 2025.
Then 2.6 billion by mid-2026.

The four became billionaires before any of them turned thirty.
Then Elon Musk came.

He launched SpaceX in the largest IPO in human history,
raising 75 billion dollars in one day.

And just four days after the IPO,
he announced acquiring Cursor for 60 billion dollars.

A full deal with stocks. No cash involved.

Why?
The AI race is no longer profitable with models alone.
It’s profitable through the product, customers, and infrastructure.

OpenAI has Codex.
Anthropic has Claude Code.
Google has Gemini.

Musk didn’t have a programming tool as powerful.
Now he owns Cursor and the world’s largest supercomputer.

From an idea in a college room to 60 billion dollars in four years.
This is the era of artificial intelligence.
