# SpaceX acquisition prompts OpenAI to end Cursor model contract > Source: > Published: 2026-08-29 07:49:29.433924+00:00 [OpenAI](https://openai.com/index/our-decision-on-cursor-following-its-acquisition-by-spacex) ### SpaceX acquisition prompts OpenAI to end Cursor model contract Which summary reads better? Pick one — models revealed after.Both summaries are AI-generated. SpaceX acquiring Cursor prompted OpenAI to terminate its model supply contract, reducing access to high-quality LLMs in integrated aerospace applications. This disrupts workflows reliant on pre-trained OpenAI models, necessitating costlier, less efficient alternatives or in-house model development. OpenAI is winding down its contract to provide models to Cursor after Cursor’s acquisition by SpaceX. If you depend on Cursor-backed workflows or integrations that route through OpenAI models, plan for model/provider changes, degraded continuity, or migration work rather than assuming the current OpenAI-powered behavior will remain stable.
