Look at it this way, if an AI is developed by a private company, its purpose is to make money. It's consuming material for that sole purpose. That isn't the case with humans. Humans read for pleasure and for information's sake itself. If an AI reads the same concept but with different wording, it generates different content. If a human reads the same concept but with different wording, it makes no difference.

Now, if these companies release their AI for free use, then that's different.
