It's not copying so it's not piracy.
You don't get to put things on the Internet where anything can view them and then claim copyright keeps them from viewing it...lol
i'm just gonna go view some pirated movie without making a copy then!
It is (edit: arguably) legal to stream pirated video. It’s just not legal to host it

A trained Gen. AI model does not just view it though. It generates content out of it which is copying and prohibited by plenty of licenses (GPL-licensed open source projects for example).
I think the copy they're referring to is the initial one that puts it on the Internet without a paywall. Not those that come along after and take a copy.
