Maybe it's not "groupthink reflexive cynicism" if you feel the need to address the obvious conflict of interest of the AI leaders in each of your paragraphs. Why did they launch this coordinated AI safety campaign, starting with Jacob Coxon's tweet?

Are you talking about the Jacob Coxon story and the people that came out agreeing with his post? It was a well coordinated campaign, not a genuine grassroots development.

I think he's going through a breakup.

OpenAI's statement:

  We congratulate Levent Alpöge and Tristan Buckmaster on their remarkable mathematical work.
  
  We (the researchers and the agents) did not see any of their work through any means until they released it publicly — in particular, no specific user data was accessed in order to solve this problem. 
  
  While unlikely, we cannot rule out that de-identified data derived from their usage of our products helped improve our models. 
  
  However, our proofs differ significantly and even the precise results proved are different in the Euler case (forced vs. unforced).
