Yes we understood your idea the first time around. And you still miss the point. It might not be for you but many individuals genuinely love their work. Either because they founded it, like the area of work, the people, or some combination.
It’s ok to not enjoy it yourself. Different strokes for different folks.
I don’t think it should be culturally championed but I don’t see it as an immediate red flag especially in the case of a bleeding edge company like OpenAI.

And I think you might be the one missing the point, because you keep saying it’s ok for them because they love it.
Surely all addicts love the thing they’re addicted to, but that doesn’t make it ok, even in the case where their addiction doesn’t ruin their lives short or mid term.
What I’m trying to say is that it is an addiction like any other and should be treated as such, not glorified.
