What kind of enforceable guarantees could we actually get that xAI won't use our private code for training? Not empty promises, guarantees that have legal teeth. This applies to anything with xAI or Cursor though, especially after last months' revelation that Cursor was uploading every repo it touched.

This question also applies to OpenAI, anthopic, GitHub (Microsoft) and any server you send your data too.

Unless you are an enterprise no one will be offering you such a guarantee. Even with the enterprise the bar has gone down a lot on expectations and compliance, every one is carrying/buying the SOC2 compliance certification these days.

I mean I think the auto uploading of repos already gives you the answer. This is untrustworthy.
