[Cursor Plans to Launch General Work Assistant 'Sand,' Targeting Claude Cowork and ChatGPT Work] According to PYMNTS, AI coding tool company Cursor is developing a general-purpose AI assistant codenamed 'Sand.' Its features include replying to emails and text messages, organizing spreadsheets, and handling engineering-related tasks, positioning itself as an office and enterprise assistant for non-developers. The report states that Cursor's move aims to diversify its product line and is expected to support SpaceXAI's enterprise business. SpaceX previously announced plans to acquire Cursor in an all-stock deal valued at approximately $60 billion, with the transaction expected to close in the third quarter. However, Cursor has not yet made a final decision on whether to launch the assistant, as the product roadmap may be influenced by the merger process.
