That's not the claim that they're making. They're arguing that OpenAI retains their work they made publicly available, which OpenAI claims is fair use because it's wholly transformative in the form of nodes, weights and biases, and that they don't store those articles in a database for reuse. But their other argument is that they created a system that threatens their business which is just ludicrous.
