This is cool and fixes a very big need I have. I often use Comfy as a shortcut to generating content in a larger pipeline and the JSONified API is OK, but not the easiest to use. Node graphs are just complicated and difficult to edit in t

You can still try it with Llama, and no it wasn't the full text of the page, or even very accurate. Even the "popular" quotes were VERY likely to be paraphrased and missing any poetry or cadence of the original. This is the

"Cliff Note" style content sometimes outsells the content they're summarizing. LLMs aren't a new problem, the internet did that already. In fact, they're really LESS likely to provide a large amount of the original

You know what else stores nearly verbatim copies of texts and then regurgitates those to the public often including direct quotes from the text? Cliff Notes. Those aren't copyright violations. See (Edit: apparently the reference is g

I came here thinking they were removing the PGP package from PyPi, but they're just removing a barely-used signature system? I don't know why they have to remove it though. I doubt it requires much maintenance now that it's
