Let’s include the whole paragraph at least.
Apertus was developed with due consideration to Swiss data protection laws, Swiss copyright laws, and the transparency obligations under the EU AI Act. Particular attention has been paid to data integrity and ethical standards: the training corpus builds only on data which is publicly available. It is filtered to respect machine-readable opt-out requests from websites, even retroactively, and to remove personal data, and other undesired content before training begins.

That is at least an improvement over including in its corpus the entire worldwide collection of copyrighted materials.

But that stuff is copywritten as well most of the time.
Just because it’s free to look at doesn’t mean it’s free to download, modify or feed into an AI.

Yeah, for sure. I’m not saying it is good at all, just that scraping some proportion of copyrighted material is an improvement over scraping all the copyrighted material.
