Making money doesn't change the legality.

Except that it actually does? That's the point of copyright laws. The LLM/AIs are using copyright protected material as source without paying for it, and then selling it's output as "original '.

Oh! That's why torrent sites aren't under constant threat despite hosting tons of free copyright material.

Hang on.... Yes they are!
