The claim is that it contains entire copies of the book. It does not. AI memory is like our memory, we do not remember books word to word.

They are spitting out, as in the quote above, "verbatim text", as in, word for word. That is copyrightable.

And that's not what you said. You said it has no memory. That's clearly wrong.
