AI used photographer’s photos for training, then slapped him with an invoice

This is original research.

As the word "train" refers to applying the uniquely human capability of acquiring information, the word "upload" seems the most appropriate term fallback to use when referring to putting information into some AI system.

You're welcome!

Reference: open any dictionary and look up the word "train". Choo choo!

Note that "training" is a pretty common established term-of-art used in AI and ML for particular kinds of operations. Re-using the term "upload" on the spot would be misleading.

However, I get the impression you're feeling somewhat frustrated right this moment. Not a problem. Would you like to come back later and edit your post? If you do (and/or reply to this), I'll reply in more detail and provide sources where possible.

Dogs are trained to do certain things, are dogs humans?

Sorry, the dictionary definition for the verb "train" is that indeed it applies to humans, and animals. (and nothing else)
