Yes. The interesting legal question is that are you sharing the original knowledge if you've transformed it via teaching it to an AI.

That is called copyright laundering FYI.

It’s a catchy term, but loaded. Copyright protects only original expression, not ideas and information. So if a computer algorithm reads the former and outputs the latter, arguably copyright isn’t involved at all.

There are plenty of good counterarguments to this as well, when you consider the effects of automation and scale. I’m definitely interested in seeing how the jurisprudence develops as these cases go through the courts.
