I think it is interesting. Is there any other company in a position today that could put together endorsement quotes from such high ranking people across tech?
That's because of financial links. They are so intertwined propping up the same bubble they are absolutely going to share quotes instantly. FWIW just skimmed through and the TL;DR sounds to me like "Look at the cool kid, we play together, we are cool too!" without obviously any information, anything meaningful or insightful, just boring marketing BS>

Reading this line, I had a funny image form of some NVidia PR newbie reflexively reaching out to Lisa Su for a supporting quote and Lisa actually considering it for a few seconds. The AI bubble really has reached a level of "We must all hang together or we'll surely hang separately".
It could be an indicator that Apple is not as leveraged up on NVIDIA as to provide a quote. Cook did make a special one of a kind product for the current POTUS, so he is nothing if not pragmatic.
Quotes from known names in a boring corporate press release are absolutely standard. It gives journalists a hook to build a story. “Elon Musk says new Nvidia tech is…”
You're right they usually do this, I checked some press release from last year. The big difference is that it's now the CEO that had to write the blurb instead of (e.g.) a vice president of product.
Yeah I imagine that when the stakes are as high as they are with Nvidia they pull out the biggest names possible, partly to drive media but also as social proof. “All these important CEOs are prepared to go on the record - not just corporate droids who have to because it’s their job”.
