> No one is forcing scientists and mathematicians to review the findings in general.

This is like "no one is forcing software engineers to use AI tooling" or "no one is forcing you to show your ID in the airport" or "no one is forcing you to own a car in your small midwestern city" - there can be no law requiring something and the practical consequences of not doing so can be so painful that you're effectively forced anyway.

That is exactly what I’m trying to say. The findings are of such such a quality that it would not make sense to ignore them wholesale.

That’s why it doesn’t make sense to present AI companies as dumping or burdening the scientific community into doing labor for them; the scientific community is self motivated to do so.

It's not self motivated. The motivation is not "this is doing amazing things for us", it's "if we don't review this, the bullshit headline complex and the bullshit-spewing (sorry, marketing) departments of tech giants are going to misinterpret/misrepresent everything and our grant money will be taken away".
