     @iska While the method Swartz used to get all of the articles was pretty fuckin dodgy it did not warrant a ton of jail time, the circumstances surrounding his death have also come under scrutiny in the last few years

     They just hammer every single site on the internet to try and get more input text, to try to make the LLM output better - even though doing so is futile, as once you've inputted pretty much all works into the copying machine, inserting duplicated works and slop just makes the output worse.
