  As long as you use AI to generate it

    The AI just gives you a 1:1 copy of it’s training data, which is the material. Viola.

  You already likely do. Every book you read and learned from is copyrighted material. Every video you watch on YouTube and learned from is copyrighted material.

    By “use” I actually meant “reproduce portions of”

      AI doesn’t do that though.

        For sure, AI can reproduce wholesale verbatim copies of text from miscellaneous sources. It can also create images that are so close to random deviantartists’ images that it’s undeniably plagiaristic. I expect this bug will be worked out eventually, but it is currently quite capable of doing this. In other words, you could say the weights contain a lossy encoding of many artists’ works, and those works can (lossily) be eked out of the model with some coercion.
