It seems very natural to me that large advances in reasoning and logic in AI should come at the expense of output predictability and absolute precision.
I guess the hard part is compartmentalizing the content spheres and public image perception.
I would much rather have an application get killed by OOM killer than swapping. Swapping absolutely kills performance. Not having enough RAM is a faulty state and swapping hides that from admins resulting in hard to debug issues. The OOM killer leaves handy logs, swapping just degrades your service and needs to be correlated with RAM usage metrics.
My experience is also that swap will be used no matter how low (or was it high?) you set the swappiness number if the memory throughput is high enough, even if there is enough RAM available.
