The update
OpenAI has officially announced the termination of its partnership with the code editor Cursor. Under the new arrangement, Cursor's direct access to OpenAI models will cease on November 12. OpenAI stated that this decision stems primarily from Cursor's recent acquisition by SpaceX. Given the historical record of contract violations and data distillation associated with Elon Musk's companies, OpenAI cannot ensure compliant use of its technology. Furthermore, the upcoming Astra model is reported to potentially possess critical-level cybersecurity capabilities. To safeguard technical security, the company believes it is necessary to strictly control distribution channels and mitigate potential risks.
