models can and do sometimes produce verbatim copies of individual items in their training data, and more frequently produce outputs that are close enough to them that they would clearly constitute copyright infringement if a human produced them.

the argument that models are not derivative works of their training data is absurd, and the fact that it is being accepted by courts is yet another confirmation that the "justice system" is anything but just and the law simply doesn't apply when there is enough money at stake.
