It depends on the level of influence in the new content. There were a number of articles that clearly showed derivative (even stolen) work by using innocuous phrases. For instance, any prompt with “video game” and “plumber” will create an unmistakable clone of Mario.
I suspect the question will be whether these models could produce similar content without using the original content.
Generating new content influenced by someone else is not plagiarism
