That assumes that using copyrighted works to train AI is copyright infringement. And that simply pasting a link to a publicly available file that the artist themselves made available is "abetting." I'm betting that using copyrighted works to train "AI" is fair use, just like a human learning from a photo would be fair use.

You’re right, I can’t claim that it is. I understand that the models do not contain the original work.

But they are not simply sharing a single link and the “intent” is different. I personally feel that we should not treat human learning and AI learning the same. Unlike humans, the AI is essentially immortal and infinitely copiable.
