There is enough non-copywrited Harry Potter fan fiction out there that it would not need to be trained on the actual books to know all the characters. While I agree they are full of shit, your anecdote proves nothing.

Why? Because you say so?

He brings up a valid point, it seems transformative.

The anecdote proves nothing because the model could potentially have known of the McGonagal character without ever being trained on the books, since that character appears in a lot of fan fiction. So their point is invalid and their anecdote proves nothing.

The sentence they wrote right before your quoted sentence answers your braindead question.

I was questioning how much non- copyrightable material was available to train an AI on.

It’s not a brain dead question just because you may disagree with it.
