I was making two separate points:

A model is not a person -> we need to write new laws. This is not a job for the courts but for us as a society.

The rest of my argument -> information that helps the courts decide, which generally will look at precedent with humans as that is the closest proxy. When you extrapolate from the law as it pertains to humans, the duplication of books for distributed training seems illegal.
