That's the point, it's almost a ship of Theseus situation.

At what point does the work become its own compared to a copy? How much variation is required? How many works are needed for sampling before its designing information based on large scale sentence structures instead of just copying exactly what it's reading?

Legislation can't occur until a benchmark is reached or we just say wholesale that AI is copyright infringement based purely on its existence and training.
