彭博援引知情人士称,马斯克旗下 SpaceX 曾试图收购 AI 编程初创公司 Cognition。不过报道发布后不久,Cognition 首席执行官 Scott Wu 在 X 上否认了这一说法,称相关内容不准确,公司并不出售,双方也没有进行相关谈判。

收购传闻遭当事方否认

这则消息出现前,SpaceX 刚完成对另一家 AI 编程公司 Cursor 的 600 亿美元收购。此前,SpaceX 还在今年早些时候收购了马斯克的 AI 公司 xAI,并于 6 月完成上市,市值一度接近 2.3 万亿美元。围绕 AI 的连续动作,显示 SpaceX 正在加快补强其人工智能业务。

AI 编程成为扩张重点

在马斯克的布局中,AI 编程被视为较清晰的商业化方向之一。企业客户愿意为代码生成、自动化开发和代理式任务付费,这也让相关创业公司成为大型科技与模型公司的争夺对象。

报道提到,Cursor 被纳入 SpaceX 体系后,双方已开始协同推进产品。本月,Cursor 与 SpaceX 联合发布了 Grok 4.6,主打编程和复杂多步骤代理任务能力。若再拿下 Cognition 及其 Devin 产品,SpaceX 在 AI 编程市场的覆盖面将进一步扩大。

Cognition继续推进融资

Cognition 目前仍是少数保持独立的大型 AI 软件编程公司之一。该公司 5 月底完成 10 亿美元融资,投后估值为 250 亿美元。彭博称,Cognition 目前还在就新一轮融资进行初步接触,目标估值约为 400 亿美元。

彭博还称,虽然收购谈判已不再推进,但双方仍在讨论合作可能,包括 Cognition 使用 SpaceX 的算力资源。Scott Wu 在否认收购传闻时,没有直接回应这一点。

补充信息:马斯克上周对员工表示,未来四到五年内,AI 可能贡献 SpaceX 绝大部分价值。对这家公司而言,企业级 AI 工具和算力销售正成为新的收入方向。
