  • Elon Musk's xAI recently announced a partnership with AI coding startup Cursor.
  • The two companies have also explored a three-way partnership with French AI startup Mistral.
  • Musk is looking to catch up to Anthropic and OpenAI.

"It will be decided in the next two years," Mensch said during a Tuesday hearing on digital sovereignty and AI at France's National Assembly, translated by Business Insider.
