an article dropped on geekwire about a new romance bookstore store using the language learning model Anthropic—y'know, the LLM that lost a lawsuit because it used thousands of stolen books to create its dataset in a massive copyright violation.

Apparently, Ghislaine Maxwell is living it up in prison with unlimited toilet paper. Here’s what we know about her alleged special privileges at her new federal prison camp in Texas.
