I think in the end they will just pay off copyright holders. The German GEMA is mostly interested in rent-seeking through whatever means available, it's basically the whole point of the organization.
They'll easily be paid off once all legal avenues are exhausted for OpenAI. Though they'll of course keep fighting in court in the hopes of some more favorable negotiating position.
If the copyright costs get too high then we'll just use Chinese AI, unless they try to ban that, too.
