The fundamental technology is identical to compression- an LLM can be thought of as a dense and slightly lossy compression algorithm. Compression is clearly copying.
I keep waiting for someone to bring out DisneyGPT, which you can prompt with text to get image output. The fact that you get a near-exact reproduction of a Disney movie when you prompt it with a movie title and frame numbers would of course be completely coincidental...
I understand what you're saying but it is a poor legal argument. Overhearing a technical conversation, using your own learned knowledge, and building a clean room implementation could be considered compression in and of itself.
