今天,我们通知 SpaceX,我们打算终止向其提供 OpenAI 模型用于 Cursor 的合同,拟议的关停日期为 2026 年 11 月 12 日。为了尽可能延长开发者通过 Cursor 使用我们模型的时间,我们给出了合同允许的最长通知期。这一决定非常艰难,因为我们非常重视让开发者能够广泛使用我们的模型。我们做出这一选择,是因为基于我们与 Elon Musk 旗下公司违反合同的经验,我们无法确信 SpaceX 会按照我们的服务条款使用我们的技术。
要与 SpaceX 这样的大型合作伙伴合作,我们通常会依赖定制合同来确保其遵守我们的服务条款,并确保集成在规模化层面具备安全性。在 Musk 收购 Twitter(现为 SpaceX 的一部分)之后,该公司违反了我们的合同条款(同时也违反了其他许多条款)。今年早些时候,Musk 在宣誓作证时承认,xAI(现在也是 SpaceX 的一部分)违反了 OpenAI 的服务条款(这些条款与 xAI 自身的条款类似)。
我们与 Cursor 的定制协议赋予我们在控制权变更后一个有限的时间窗口来取消该协议。随着 AI 能力的不断进步,我们也承担了新的责任,以确保我们即将推出的模型 Astra 按照我们的条款被使用。鉴于以上种种情况,我们决定将合同取消时间推迟到我们能够做到的最晚日期,同时不再向 Cursor 提供未来的模型。
我们与 Cursor 合作已近四年,我们非常尊重他们的团队、他们的产品,以及他们为开发者社区所打造的一切。我们知道,受这一决定影响最大的是那些在 Cursor 中依赖 OpenAI 模型的开发者。我们关心他们在这一过渡期间的体验,并准备竭尽全力为他们提供支持。

Today, we notified SpaceX that we intend to wind down our contract providing OpenAI models to Cursor, with a proposed shutoff date of November 12, 2026. To maximize the time that developers can retain access to our models through Cursor, we are giving the maximum notice provided by our contract. This decision was incredibly tough, as we care deeply about our models being broadly available for developers. We are making this choice because we cannot be confident that SpaceX will use our technology within our terms of service, based on our experience with Elon Musk's companies violating contracts.
To work with a large partner like SpaceX, we typically rely on custom contracts to ensure compliance with our terms of service and that the integration provides for safety at scale. After Musk acquired Twitter, now part of SpaceX, the company broke the terms of our contract (alongside many others). Under oath earlier this year, Musk admitted that xAI, now also part of SpaceX, had violated OpenAI’s terms of service (terms which are similar to xAI’s own).
Our custom agreement with Cursor gives us a limited time window to cancel it after a change of control. As AI capabilities advance, we also have a new level of accountability to ensure our upcoming model, Astra, is being used in accordance with our terms. Given all of this, we’ve decided to hold the contract cancellation to the latest date we can while not providing future models to Cursor.
We’ve worked with Cursor for nearly four years and have enormous respect for their team, their product, and what they’ve built for the developer community. We know that the people most affected by this decision are the developers who rely on OpenAI models in Cursor. We care about their experience in this transition and we’re ready to go above and beyond to support them.
