But by their very nature the LLM simply redistribute the material they’ve been trained on. They may disguise it assiduously, but there is no person at the center of the thing adding creative stokes. It’s copyrighted material in, copyrighted material out, so the plaintiffs allege.

They don't redistribute. They learn information about the material they've been trained on - not there natural itself*, and can use it to generate material they've never seen.

Bigger models seem to memorize some of the material and can infringe, but that's not really the goal.
