This is ridiculous. It's not just AIs models that built their abstract conceptions on copyrighted material, but humans too. When a human artist paints a futuristic dome, they are also subconsciously accessing millions of copyright images they've seen throughout their lives and using them "without consent". To be consistent the author would need to avert their eyes and never look at copyrighted imagery. Also the comparison to veganism and animal suffering is off putting.
