I work as an AI engineer and any company that's has a legal department that isn't braindead isn't stealing content. The vast majority of content posted online is done so under a creative commons licence, which allows other people to do basically whatever they want with that content, so it's in no way shape or form stealing.
Yeah I know, but the press picks some rare cases and says, that this goes for all.
You know how it is.
It really depends on what the site's terms of service/usage agreement says about the content posted on the site.
For example a site like Art Station has users agree to a usage license that lets them host and transmit the images in their portfolios. However there is no language saying the visitors are also granted these rights. So you may be able to collect the site text for fair use, but the art itself requires reaching out for anything other than personal/educational use.
