It hasn’t been tested in court yet but I don’t see why it shouldn’t.

Fair use is any copying of copyrighted material done for a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work.

I don’t see why it should.

The creation of the AI model is transformative. The AI’s model does not contain a literal copy of the copyrighted work.

No, but the training data does contain a copy. And making a model is not criticising, commenting upon, or creating a parody of it.
