OpenAI cuts off Cursor after SpaceX acquisition, citing Musk's history of breaking contracts
OpenAI has terminated API access for AI-assisted coding platform Cursor following Cursor's acquisition by SpaceX. OpenAI reportedly justified the cutoff by citing Elon Musk's history regarding contractual commitments. In response, Cursor co-founder Michael Truell stated that OpenAI models account for approximately five percent of the platform's overall AI traffic, downplaying the operational severity of the loss for Cursor's developer user base.
