At the same time, tensions around Anthropic's Fable 5 and Mythos 5 export restrictions intensified, with cybersecurity leaders and researchers calling for the U.S. government to reverse its decision.Meanwhile, SpaceX officially acquired AI coding startup Cursor in a $60 billion stock deal, creating one of the most powerful AI software ecosystems under Elon Musk's expanding empire.
