Yes. There seems to be consensus that copyright only applies to “creative” human-made artifacts, and thus does not apply to artifacts created by machines without human intervention (what happens for things “partially created” by the machine is a grey area): • study from the EU Parliament: https://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/STUD/2025/774095/IUST_STU(2025)774095_EN.pdf • US Copyright Office: https://copyright.gov/ai/Copyright-and-Artificial-Intelligence-Part-2-Copyrightability-Report.pdf • US Congress: https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/LSB10922 It does mean that the copyleft license applicable to some of the inputs of these LLMs is being laundered, which I find problematic.
