    I agree with you, but I also would like to make a point.

    We’ve seen trained models produce exact text from sections in articles and draw anti-piracy watermarks over images.

    Just because it’s turning the content into associations doesn’t mean it can’t, in some circumstances, reproduce exactly what it was trained on. It’s not the intent, but it does happen.

    Midjourney drawing recognisable characters is far more problematic from the copyright and trademark side, but honestly, nothing is stopping you from doing that in Photoshop.

    Millions of unlicensed products are all over ebay, temu and etsy and we didn’t even need AI to make them.
