The creators are aware that a human is using this, can we say the same for AI, does it have their consent?

Then consent is granted by transitive property because these AI are yielded by humans.
Yea but guy paying closedai to get "insights" that basically copy-pasted content from my blog is definitely violating my blogs copyright, and in the end no coin comes to me either. What about that?
Could you provide an example where OpenAI outputting verbatim quotes actually constitutes the copyright violation? Because mechanically retrieving relevant quotes seems analogous to grep/search - the copyright status would depend on how downstream users transform and use that content. Like how quoting your blog in a technical analysis or critique is fair use, but wholesale republishing isn't. This suggests the violation occurs at usage time, not retrieval time.
