OpenAI is in discussions to acquire Windsurf, an AI coding tool, for around $3 billion, as it seeks to maintain its competitive edge in the generative AI sector against rivals like Google and Anthropic. This potential acquisition would mark OpenAI's largest to date, following a recent $40 billion funding round that elevated its valuation to $300 billion. Windsurf is gaining popularity among developers for its AI-driven coding assistance capabilities.
