The copyright violation, if there is one, is committed by the person who extracts data from the model and uses or distributes it in ways not permitted by law.
Not by the person who feeds data into the model... and not by the model itself, for merely retaining an unrecognizable, unusable, highly-compressed and -transformed representation internally.
Seems simple enough. Any other outcome will either halt the process of human intellectual evolution, or transfer a staggering amount of power to people who DGAF about US copyright law. So be careful what you wish for.
