Neel Nanda, Tom Lieberum and others, mentored by Jacob Steinhardt
I will clarify in my personal case that I did the grokking work as an independent research project and that Jacob only became involved in the project after I had done the core research, and his mentorship was specifically about the process of distillation and writing up the results (to be clear, his mentorship here was high value! But I think that the paper benefited less from his mentorship than is implied by the reference class of having him as the final author)

I agree with this.

Also, no reputational harm intended, sorry.
