The ongoing tug-of-war in the world of artificial intelligence has taken a new turn. OpenAI announced on Friday that it will no longer provide its AI models to Cursor.
The popular coding tool company Cursor is owned by Elon Musk’s company Specs Case.
OpenAI’s decision is another major development in the years-long bitter dispute between the company’s Chief Executive Sam Altman and Elon Musk.
According to OpenAI, the reason for the company’s move is concerns that SpaceX will not use its technology in accordance with the company’s terms.
The company said in its statement that it does not trust that agreements regarding the use of OpenAI’s technology will be fully respected based on previous experiences with companies owned or controlled by Elon Musk.
The differences between Sam Altman and Elon Musk have been going on for years, but this year the dispute took a very serious turn when Musk’s $150 billion lawsuit against OpenAI went to court.
The decision to stop supplying AI models to Cursor is a sign that Altman and Musk are not just in a legal battle, but are also in a fiercer competition over access to AI technology and business relationships.
The development comes at a time when both OpenAI and Elon Musk are trying to strengthen their positions in the field of artificial intelligence.
