I like her and I get why creatives are panicking because of all the AI hype.

However:

In evidence for the suit against OpenAI, the plaintiffs claim ChatGPT violates copyright law by producing a “derivative” version of copyrighted work when prompted to summarize the source.

A summary is not a copyright infringement. If there is a case for fair-use it's a summary.

The comic's suit questions if AI models can function without training themselves on protected works.

A language model does not need to be trained on the text it is supposed to summarize. She clearly does not know what she is talking about.

IANAL though.
