I don't think so. Content contributed to SO gets licensed under CC-BY-SA, no? How do these AI models respect the "BY" portion of that license? How do we enforce the "SA" portion of the license on people who use the output of the model?
The answer is they don't, but the big companies decided violating copyright is OK so long as they do it all at once, because there's a lot of money to be made if you ignore copyright.
Personally I'd be OK with a compromise where any entity that creates or uses an AI trained on copyrighted data forfeits copyright on all of their own works (not just those created by AI, all of their works).
