And this is my point: the (super) human and the machine are both capable of infringing copyright - breaking the law. The question is: are they actually doing it?
If you sit the human down with a researcher and they write out: HP5 Goblet of Fire in its entirety 99.9%+ accurately (for the edition they are recalling) - that's research, fair use. As was done with the AI models by some researchers. Are the AI models out there in the real world also selling copies of their training books in full, or substantial parts, to their users? I haven't seen demonstration of that, yet.
