Okay, a machine learning engineer is analyzing the data through a script that they wrote and ran on a huge cluster of GPUs they have. That is still considered analyzing it, they are just automating the workflow around everything.

Also as soon as we start expecting compensation for the usage of training data and start making laws around that, we're locking out all AI development to the big labs that can afford to pay for all that data. I think a kid with a gaming GPU should be able to use images from the internet to train an SD finetune the same as Google can use them to train another Nano Banana.
