The easiest logical way I can make sense of this problem is to apply it to humans. Copyrighted material has tremendously impacted my thinking and work, but I had to pay to access it. And as long as I'm not publishing copies of the copyrighted work, derivative work seems to be fair use. This seems fair for everyone, if they want to train on a resource then they should pay for it.
The only angle I can see this working for OpenAI is pushing the anti-China national security threat narrative, which I expect to see a lot more of this year (especially with this administration). While I personally hate that, I can definitely see how AI + drones are the obvious future in warfare, so I don't think it's that far-fetched to work.
