They only own the arrangement of what is and isn't in the training set, insamuch as that training set represents human creativity. The process of training model weights is itself purely mechanical.
The closest that they could get would be trade secrecy violations, but that only punishes the original leaker and anyone working in concert with them. I'm not sure if anyone's successfully managed to get an entire BitTorrent swarm to be considered misappropriating trade secrets. Presumably at some point, when the trade secret has been violated, you can obtain it without misappropriating - otherwise, how does that not just become Copyright 2.0?
