I bet they can claim copyright up to the gradients generated on their media, but in the end the gradients get summed up, so their contribution is lost in the cocktail.

If I write a copyrighted text on a book, then I print a million other texts on top of it, in both white an black, mixing it all up to be like white noise, would the original authors have a claim?

Worse, sometimes the input data is illegal to distribute for other reasons than copyright.
