The rationale is part fair use and (more) part the process is transformative.
If the Ai can output enough to violate copyright, that's when an author can make claims. Until it does, it's just speculation that it might one day do that
You mean like using Disney characters without permission in AI art and videos?
That’s a good one, either way someone will lose (they are both “evil”) and lose big. I wouldn’t bet against AI companies though.
Free cartoon characters like Tux can be used in videos, images, and video games.
yeah, images are much harder for copyright I expect
the NYT case is another, but that was an older model more prone to that, and text is easier to (eg.) hash and prevent with a post-gen guardrail
