Anysphere’s Cursor brings AI coding agents to web and mobile browsers
Well-funded artificial intelligence startup Anysphere Inc. is expanding beyond its viral generative AI code editor and into “agentic AI” with the launch of new web and mobile browser-based orchestration tools for coding agents.
Anysphere last month closed on a bumper $900 million funding round that valued it at a cool $9.9 billion. It’s the company behind the popular AI code generating assistant Cursor, which automates software writing tasks for developers. Cursor embeds itself directly into the programmer’s integrated development environment and responds to natural language prompts by generating code, explaining it and performing various other tasks.
With today’s launch, Anysphere is accelerating an expansion beyond the IDE that began in May when it launched “background agents” that can help to automate coding tasks without any supervision from developers. A month later, as it announced its big funding round, it also debuted a Slack integration that makes it simple to assign tasks to these background agents within the popular chat application by tagging them @Cursor, similar to the way that Cognition AI Inc.’s Devin coding agent works.
Once again, Anysphere is putting its AI coding agents into more places, and this time it’s targeting the web browser. With its new application, developers can send natural language prompts from a mobile or web-based browser directly to the background agents, instructing them to perform tasks like writing new features or fixing bugs. Using the web app, developers can also monitor fleets of agents that are busy working on different tasks, check their progress and register those that have been completed within the underlying codebase.
Anysphere explained that developers can instruct its AI agents to complete tasks via the web app, and if they’re unable to do so, they can seamlessly switch to the IDE to take over and see what’s caused it to come unstuck. Each of its agents has its own shareable link, which developers can click on to see its progress.
Cursor’s evolution has helped to grow its popularity, and Anysphere said today it’s now generating more than $500 million in annualized recurring revenue from subscribers to the tool. It counts more than half of the Fortune 500 as customers, including illustrious names such as Nvidia Corp., Adobe Inc. and Uber Technologies Inc.
Last month, Anysphere launched a new $200-per-month “Ultra” tier for Cursor that’s aimed at these kinds of big enterprise users, giving them more advanced functionality and greater scale. As far as today’s move is concerned, it’s an effort to “remove the friction” for these users, Anysphere Head of Product Engineering Andrew Milich told TechCrunch. He explained that customers want Cursor to operate in more places, and “solve more of the problems they’re having.”
The new web app will be available to all subscribers who have access to its background agents, which basically means everyone except those on the free tier.
Anysphere is not the first AI startup to launch coding agents that can use multiple tools, but Anysphere Chief Executive Ben Thompson told Stratechery in an interview last month that it was necessary to wait for AI reasoning models to advance to a point where it can ensure the accuracy and reliability of its agents. That time has come, he said, so hopefully Cursor’s users won’t find themselves bogged down dealing with mistakes.

Lava bursts from Earth’s mantle are creating a new ocean in Africa |
In East Africa’s Afar Depression, one of the only places on Earth where three tectonic plates meet, scientists have found compelling new evidence that fresh lava from deep within the mantle is playing a key role in the continent’s gradual splitting. Recent studies reveal that mantle upwellings beneath the region are not uniform but instead pulse upward in complex waves of molten material. This geological activity is not only fueling volcanic eruptions and earthquakes but is also actively weakening the crust. Over time, this process is expected to lead to the formation of a new ocean that will one day separate the Horn of Africa from the rest of the continent, transforming the geography of the region on a monumental scale.
Lava pulses and chemical striping reveal Earth’s deep inner workings
Scientists from the University of Southampton and Swansea University analyzed lava from over 130 young volcanoes across the Afar region. Their findings showed that the mantle beneath East Africa behaves like a beating heart, with pulses of partially molten rock rising to the surface. Each pulse carries its own distinct chemical signature, indicating that the mantle is not a single plume but a patchwork of different materials. This dynamic behavior is strongly influenced by the thickness and motion of the tectonic plates above.In fast-moving zones like the Red Sea Rift, mantle flow is more focused and intense. In slower rifting regions, it spreads more gradually. These pulses travel through thinned areas of the Earth’s crust, which are more susceptible to volcanic eruptions. The chemical “striping” in the lava mirrors cardiovascular rhythms and reflects the deep Earth’s internal tempo. This provides rare insight into how volcanic activity on the surface is tied to hidden processes occurring far beneath our feet.The plume’s action is also eroding the lithosphere, Earth’s outer shell, to just 15 kilometers thick in some parts of the Afar Depression. As the plates continue to stretch and thin, they create conduits for even more lava to reach the surface, leading to cycles of volcanic eruptions and seismic activity. This process mirrors events that shaped the Atlantic Ocean millions of years ago.
A continent breaks apart and a new ocean is born
The geological activity in the Afar region is part of a larger process known as continental rifting. Here, the African, Arabian, and Somali tectonic plates are moving away from each other. The space created between them is being filled with rising magma and new crust. Over time, as this rifting continues, seawater is expected to flow in and permanently flood the region. This will create a new ocean basin, much like the Atlantic that once separated Europe and North America.The current volcanic activity is already reshaping the surface. Lava from the Erta Ale volcano blankets large parts of Ethiopia, and frequent earthquake swarms mark zones of intense tectonic stress. The Boset Volcano shows layer upon layer of volcanic deposits, illustrating the long-term accumulation of geological events driven by the mantle’s upwelling.These findings not only offer a real-time glimpse into the birth of an ocean but also have implications for understanding Earth’s climate and history. Similar mantle plumes in the past have produced massive volcanic provinces like the North Atlantic Igneous Province, which contributed to significant climate changes and possibly even mass extinctions through the release of CO₂ and sulfur dioxide.Scientists emphasize that collaboration across institutions and disciplines is essential for understanding these complex dynamics. Future research will focus on mapping mantle flows beneath other thinning tectonic plates and predicting how these deep forces shape surface geology. Ultimately, the Afar region provides a natural laboratory for observing the connection between Earth’s interior and its evolving surface in action.

CNSA releases Earth, moon images captured by Tianwen-2 probe-Xinhua
BEIJING, July 1 (Xinhua) — The China National Space Administration (CNSA) on Tuesday released images of Earth and the moon captured by the Tianwen-2 probe in orbit.
The CNSA said that the narrow-field-of-view navigation sensor equipped on the probe recently captured the images of Earth and the moon, demonstrating good functional performance.
The images released include a photograph of Earth obtained by Tianwen-2 when it was approximately 590,000 kilometers away from the planet, as well as a new photograph of the moon captured when it was about the same distance from the moon. After the images were transmitted back to the ground, they were processed and produced by scientific researchers.
The Tianwen-2 probe has currently been in orbit for over 33 days, at a distance from Earth exceeding 12 million kilometers, and it is in good working condition, the CNSA said.
China launched its first asteroid sample-return mission, Tianwen-2, on May 29 — an endeavour to shed light on the formation and evolution of asteroids and the early solar system.
The mission aims to achieve multiple goals over a decade-long expedition: collecting samples from near-Earth asteroid 2016HO3 and exploring main-belt comet 311P, which is farther from Earth than Mars. ■

Marc Jacobs Fall 2025 Ready-to-Wear Runway, Fashion Show & Collection Review
The fashion crowd was back at the New York Public Library on Monday night ahead of the Fourth of July holiday weekend to revel in Marc Jacobs latest collection of dreamlike Victorian beauties.
Per usual, Jacobs’ show notes set the stage for the five minute fall collection runway show of concise 19 looks, which each packed a punch to the soft tune of ‘Song for Jesse’ by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis.
“Beauty,” the notes read. “A quality or combination of qualities that gives pleasure to the mind or senses and is often associated with properties such as harmony of form or color, proportion, and authenticity.”

Jacobs, during a recent conversation with author and former WWD executive editor Bridget Foley at La Maison Orveda’s debut fireside chat of its Cultural Tastemakers programming series, spoke about his ongoing inspirations and evolution.
“It’s been more interesting to think about clothes in a sculptural way and without being pretentious or arrogant — we do it our way, which usually has a reference to something known,” he said. “When I wear fashion, I want a real shoulder commitment, I want a silhouette going, and I want to feel involved. Fashion is really special and it’s something you don’t need. It’s not a mere piece of cloth to cover your body. It’s something that pulls at your heart.”
His words came to mind on Monday night, seen through through the fall collection, a fabulous continuation of the larger than life, twisted, doll-like takes on the familiar – the vocabulary he’s been developing strongly over the last few years. Jacobs leaned into Victorian shapes mixed with a bit of grunge, as seen through look one model’s giant lilac lace blouse, grounded with extra large and baggy cargo pants featuring a big bow on its rear. There were bows galore, also seen on the backs of almost every look, including gorgeous sculptural lace gowns (in pretty pastels or darker, vampy hues) and cinched up or pin-tucked big pants; in the models’ hair, or twisted into a bulbous, pale pink layered lingerie dress that fell off the body just-so.
Jacobs continued his story with ditsy wallpaper floral prints and pastel lace, whipping them into exaggerated Victorian doll silhouettes, some of which hugged closer to the body than in recent seasons before exploding out into pouffed shoulders and hems. His sculptural blouses were knockouts – a billowing floral version on Alex Consani; a rounded, polka-dot rendition on model Wali Deutsch, or a sweet but strong white lace one worn by Sascha Rajasalu – but really, so were each of the designer’s sixteen other looks.
Once again through fashion, Jacobs transported his guests into an otherworldly escape of fairytale, dreamlike beauty.

Apple CEO Tim Cook and Senior Vice President of Software Engineering Craig Federighi at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference keynote on June 9, 2025
Apple (AAPL) could turn to ChatGPT maker OpenAI or Anthropic for help after delays in the launch of its highly anticipated AI-enhanced Siri, Bloomberg reported Monday.
The iPhone maker has held talks with both Anthropic and OpenAI about relying on their AI models instead of in-house technology, according to Bloomberg, citing people familiar with the matter. Siri can be used to access ChatGPT with some iPhone models.
Significant delays have raised pressure on Apple to prove it can compete with other tech leaders on AI development.
Anthropic declined to comment on the report. Apple and OpenAI did not respond to an Investopedia request for comment in time for publication.
At Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference earlier this month, Senior Vice President of Software Engineering Craig Federighi said the Siri features “need more time to reach our high quality bar” and that more information would be released “in the coming year.”
Shares of Apple rose 2% to close just above $205 on Monday. The stock has lost nearly a fifth of its value in 2025 so far, making it the second-worst-performing member of the Magnificent Seven stocks this year after Tesla (TSLA).
