"But the model doesn't have any agency" This is a red herring. The issue before the court will be whether creation and release of the model effects J.K. Rowling. Think of it this way- suppose I make a bunch of super mario brothers video games and try to sell them without Nintendo's permision. If Nintendo sued me, I can't say "This cartridge has no agency. This will only effect Nintendo if humans use this video game instead of playing super mario brothers."
