You don't need a license to learn from a story, but if learning requires you first to make an enduring copy of the story on your laptop then you could be violating copyright.

And neural nets generally require a local enduring copy of their training data, which means they too could be violating copyright.

Isn’t copyright only an issue when a copy is sold?

[-] FlowVoid@midwest.social 11 points 10 months ago

No. For example, most people who pirate software, movies, and music do not sell anything. But they are still violating copyright.
