OpenAI announced it will cease supplying its artificial-intelligence models to the Cursor platform following the company’s acquisition by SpaceX. The decision was explained as a precaution because OpenAI cannot be confident that SpaceX’s use of the technology will comply with OpenAI’s terms of service. Consequently, Cursor will no longer receive OpenAI models.
SpaceX has officially closed its acquisition of Cursor, an artificial-intelligence coding startup, for approximately $60 billion. The deal finalizes a transaction that was first announced two months earlier, confirming SpaceX’s move into advanced AI development. This purchase positions the company to expand its capabilities in AI-driven software engineering.
SpaceX has secured an option to acquire AI-coding startup Cursor for roughly $60 billion, framing the arrangement as a partnership to scale the company’s technology. The agreement allows SpaceX to exercise the call by year-end or walk away after paying $10 billion, and the deal’s timing could postpone SpaceX’s IPO while Cursor has halted its reported $2 billion funding round.
Composer 2 is a coding model priced at $0.50 per million input tokens and $2.50 per million output tokens, with a faster variant costing three times as much. It outperforms Claude Opus 4.6 but still lags behind GPT-5.4. The model is built on Kimi K2.5, accessed through Fireworks AI.
Nvidia has unveiled the Vera Rubin platform, a seven-chip AI system that includes OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta on board. The platform is designed for agentic AI workloads and is positioned for use in both terrestrial and orbital data centers, with claims of up to 25 times more AI compute for space-based inference compared to the H100.
