OpenAI said it’s ending its contract with Cursor, a coding startup recently acquired by SpaceX, because it doesn’t trust an Elon Musk-owned company to comply with its terms of service.
The company said in a statement published on Friday night that it plans to shut off Cursor’s access to OpenAI models on November 12.
OpenAI did not accuse Cursor of violating any terms. It instead pointed to past conduct by another Musk-owned company, Twitter, which Musk bought in 2022 and merged with SpaceX earlier in February.
The infighting and imminent downfall of AI clapping companies is so satisfying to watch
Yesss eat each other
Haha I had a cursor rep reach out to me last week with a pitch around their bright future now they’re part of SpaceX.
I replied and told him that in no uncertain terms would I do business with any business that directly benefits a known fascist like Elon Musk.
Really really don’t say this often but Sam Altman has a point here.
Oh man he bought Cursor I missed that. Boo.
Yes shortly after the IPO, and I think they spend 80% of the money they got from the IPO buying Cursor.
They paid most of that with fake money tied to SpaceX stocks. Still a golden parachute to the founders
What’s a good alternative to cursor?
