Analyst BohuTANG reports that the new model Ox Alpha processed 2.40T tokens on OpenRouter in just 29 hours, estimated at a $600k inference bill based on GLM-5.3 pricing, despite being free. The scale suggests a collaboration between Cursor and xAI. Rumors also indicate Cursor is no longer a separate entity, and Elon Musk stated SpaceXAI will release a new model monthly, with Grok 4.7 next in line aiming to outperform all current models.
