> The only only pure fuck-up I'd call out is switching from third to first person when referring to OpenAI in the same sentence (No. 4).
"We" in this sentence refers to both parties; "they" refers to OpenAI. Not a grammatical error.

Fair enough.

I'd say it is. It's a press release from OpenAI. The rest of the release uses the third-person "they" to refer to Microsoft. The LLM traded accuracy for a bad joke, which is someting I associate with LinkedIn speak.
The fundmaental problem might be the OpenAI press release is vague. (And changing. It's changed at least once since I first commented.)
In isolation sure. But in context with the other points it makes it look like "they" refers to Microsoft in all the dot points.
