That's very much up for debate still.
(I am personally still undecided)
I agree with you for the most part, but when the "person" in charge of the LLM is a big corporation, it just exaggerates many of the issues we have with current copyright law. All the current lawsuits going around signal to me that society as a whole is not so happy with how it's being used, regardless of how it fits in to current law.
AI is causing humanity to have to answer a lot of questions most people have been ignoring since the dawn of philosophy. Personally I find it rather concerning how blurry some lines are getting, and I've already had to reevaluate how I think about certain things, like what moral responsibilities we'll have when AIs truely start to become sentient. Is turning them off and deleting them a form of murder? Maybe...
OpenAI losing their case is how we ensure that the only people who can legally be in charge of an LLM are massive corporations with enough money to license sufficient source material for training, so I'm forced to begrudgingly take their side here
