OpenAI will pull its models from Cursor due to SpaceXAI acquisition

OpenAI is planning to cut off Cursor's access from its models, following the AI coding assistant's acquisition by SpaceXAI. In a post on its website, the company said it's giving Cursor users as much time as it could based on its contract. It intends to pull its models from the service on November 12, 2026, but it said that Cursor could choose an earlier termination date. The company explained that it's making this choice because it can't be confident that SpaceX will use its technology within its terms of services, based on its "experience with Elon Musk's companies violating contracts." OpenAI and Musk have a long and troubled history, with the SpaceXAI chief being one of the company's earliest investors.
