If you watch a pirated copy of Oppenheimer, perfectly memorise it with machine-like accuracy, and then recreate it, then yeah you might be in violation of copyright law.

LLMs are very good at creating things in the style of existing work, but they aren't that great at re-creating existing work verbatim. For example, here's what happens if you prompt Midjourney to draw "the mona lisa": https://i.imgur.com/njOlL5h.jpg
Obviously these are attempts at recreating the Mona Lisa, but none of them are the Mona Lisa. Whether they fall within fair use is an entirely separate question.
