Neither does AI?

But considering that humans do get copyright strikes when they do something too similar that should also applies to AI, doesn't matter if it's not exact.

That should tell you something about how companies act. They're fine with these LLMs plagiarising content but when someone gets marginally close to their own trademarks, they get slammed.
