South Review, a state media outlet, did full coverage from Coxon's resignation to pacing the frontier to RSI to METR's report on OAI-HF incidents, under the title "'Even Pulling the Plug Won’t Work': AI Scares Engineers Away"

"Despite all the lofty rhetoric, the debate ultimately comes down to a struggle over the pursuit and distribution of power and profit. A “great slowdown” may sound appealing, but it could amount to false advertising, allowing leading companies to entrench their dominance in the name of safety. Meanwhile, opponents of slowing down invoke innovation and national competitiveness while turning a blind eye to the instances of "AI crossing established boundaries" that have already occurred.
