    Using copyrighted material for research is fair use. Any model produced by such research is not itself a derivative work of the training material.

    You’re conflating AI research and the AI business. Training an AI is not “research” in a general sense, especially in the context of an AI that can be used to create assets for commercial applications.

      It’s not possible to research AI without training them.

      It’s probably also not possible to train a model whose creations cannot be used for commercial applications.
