SpaceX is apparently cutting Grok Bot usage limits, with several users seeing their quotas slashed in half over the weekend, according to the Telegraph.
- Elon Musk responded to complaints on X on Sunday, saying that "the cost of running Grok Bot was unsustainably high relative to revenue," though he did not confirm a cut outright.
- One user reported waiting days for a fresh quota, and Musk asked him whether a bigger subscription would be too expensive.

Cursor.
- Less than two weeks ago, Musk called it his fastest-growing product, according to Forbes, and SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell cited 800,000 paying users per week in early October, more than double the previous month's figure.
