OpenAI has officially announced it will end Cursor's access to its models after the platform's acquisition by SpaceX. The company informed SpaceX that the contract allowing Cursor to use OpenAI’s technology will be terminated, citing a lack of confidence that SpaceX would comply with existing terms. The disconnection is scheduled for November 12, 2026, which is 76 days from the notice. OpenAI stated that the developers relying on Cursor’s integration will be most affected and has committed to supporting them throughout the transition period. 📰 @aipost
When they were still a non-profit research foundation, it was basically open research. Basically public goods. They publish their findings and often with source code too. After ChatGPT launched and they became for-profit, sam said on an interview that the "open" doesn't actually mean open-source, but it was about being the AI that's as accessible as possible for everyone, without being dangerous. So, the "Open" here means "Accessible" But now, they're ending partnership with Cursor after SpaceXAI acquisition just because of the owner's personal feud with Elon I see this decision really contrasts with their value. So, what is actually OpenAI's values or mission? Do they actually have any? What does "Open" here really mean anymore? submitted by /u/icompletetasks [link] [comments]
OpenAI says it intends to wind down its contract providing models to Cursor, with a proposed shutoff date of November 12, 2026. OpenAI says Cursor's change of control after SpaceX's acquisition triggered a limited cancellation window, and says it will not provide future models to Cursor. Reuters reports that Anthropic plans to increase compute support for Claude models in Cursor, while Cursor co-founder Michael Truell said the companies were speaking to resolve the issue. The practical lesson for coding-tool teams is dependency risk: a model provider can change access after ownership or contract changes, so model portability and fallback capacity matter.
