Only if the "use" where use means distribute.

If I sample a track and play it in my home I don't properly compensate anyone.

If I ask GPT to create a cool new comic based on the article and then delete or use it privately it, same applies.

Assuming that's true, GPT is the one "distributing" in your second example, so that still applies to them (if not you).
