OpenAI Ends Cursor Partnership After SpaceX Buyout, Halts New Model Access

Two weeks after SpaceX closed its $60 billion acquisition of Cursor, OpenAI has ended its partnership with the AI coding platform, bringing a nearly four-year collaboration to a close. Under the terms of the split, new OpenAI models will no longer be integrated into Cursor, and direct supply of existing models is tentatively scheduled to stop on Nov. 12, 2026. The companies' contract allowed OpenAI to terminate the agreement after Cursor was acquired, according to the announcement. OpenAI's statement took direct aim at Elon Musk, accusing Twitter of breaching its contract with OpenAI after Musk's takeover of the platform. OpenAI also pointed to Musk's admission in court this year that xAI had improperly used OpenAI models. That track record, OpenAI said, was the reason Cursor's new owner — SpaceX — could not be trusted with its latest models. The message was blunt: new models will not be handed over to Musk.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang revealed on the All-In podcast that he still personally reviews compensation recommendations for all roughly 42,000 employees at the end of every cycle—and almost always raises operating spend. A survey of about 3,000 Nvidia staffers found that 76%–78% have become millionaires, with roughly half holding a net worth above $25 million. Employees can buy shares at a 15% discount through the company's stock purchase plan, and Nvidia's stock has surged nearly 3,800% since 2019, dramatically boosting employee wealth.

ChainCatcher said Chris Malone, a key OpenAI executive in charge of data center construction, left the company last week. The report added that Malone had overseen the Stargate project, which got off to a rough start, prompting OpenAI to shift toward working with cloud service providers. OpenAI is now using leased full data center facilities to build out its infrastructure. The company is also going through management changes as it prepares for a 2027 IPO, with several executives having left recently. The report said computing infrastructure spending is expected to reach $750 billion by 2030.
