Sorry to say, archive.org is under a ddos attack. The data is not affected, but most services are unavailable.

We are working on it. This thread will have updates.

This has been a back and forth with the attackers. We have made some adjustments, but geez.

Existing AI companies got their data long ago—but it’s in their interest to create barriers for entry to new AI companies.
