Artificial intelligence startup Cognition announced it's acquiring Windsurf, the AI coding company that lost its CEO and several other senior employees to Google just days earlier.

Cognition said on Monday that it will purchase Windsurf's intellectual property, product, trademark, brand and talent, but didn't disclose terms of the deal. It's the latest development in an AI talent war, as companies like Meta, Google and OpenAI fiercely compete for top engineers and researchers.
