If the AI is able to type back out a duplicate of the training data, then I agree that's copyright infringement. If it just learns from the data like a human with normal memory reading a large amount of material, then I don't see it. That's normally the case. There have been experiments where someone managed to make an AI spit out near-copies, but it's not the default situation and seems preventable.

I do agree that we should encourage human creativity. But if AI isn't making copies, and the output of AI isn't awarded copyright (as is currently the case) then I think humans still have sufficient reward.
