I wonder why it is so cited in the literature.

AI hype, a write-up in WSJ with superlative comments from famous MIT profs. Should do it.

Most of the citations are to other papers on preprint servers and I guess a lot of people were working on similar themes and added it as a reference

So, indeed, I'd guess cited it without reading it.
