Earlier quoted context omitted.

These are much worse. You can generally fire consultants. These people are from OpenAI. Good luck ever cancelling or reducing your OpenAI contracts when they have people inside your organization. Have fun trying to even discuss it as these people will no doubt insert themselves into every meeting and watercooler discussion involving the contracts they are are paid to protect.

Doesn't ASML have Engineers who work with TSMC to make sure their complex machines works optimally within their manufacturing facility? How is this any different?

Yes but when you buy any billion-dollar machine you are committed to a long term relationship with the vendor. OpenAI is more akin to a cloud service. In a few months you may wish to switch to a different service. Asml customers operated on decades, not months.

Is the sentiment around OpenAI already so bad that it's even fallen off the front page of Hacker News in two hours?

Well, it is a repulsive corporation, with a very repulsive CEO. But so is Anthropic and all of Big Tech, so there's that.

even ant?
