Both of your claims are true. That doesn’t justify breaking the law.

I could likewise argues that most of the world money is in the hands of other people, I could perform more in the markets if I had it, and so I should just go take it. We still follow the law and respect others’ rights in spite of what acting morally cost us.

The law abiding, moral choice is to do what we can within the law while working to improve the law. That means we use a combination of permissively licensed works and works to train our models. We also push for legislation that creates exceptions in copyright law for training machine learning models. We’re already seeing progress in Israel and Singapore on those.
