Yeah, the quotes+links are rather a diversion than proper attribution. This is like a robber putting a few bought trinkets on display amidst all their stolen stuff – just because the trinkets are not stolen doesn’t mean all the rest is suddenly legit as well.

I was wondering if they might be using OlmoTrace or something like it for attribution.

@mdfst13 Most probably not. The links in the summaries are word for word citations. They know exactly where they take them from and just replicate links that are already present in the output.
