I think the reason behind it is similar to case where you are allowed to watch movie in theater with eye, but not with camera

But you can have someone that watches the movie give you a plot summary, and I assume some sort of AI device that does the same would also be alright.

That's why for example fan-made Star Wars movies are totally OK, and Disney has no issue with them, right? In such cases not even the plot is based on anything Disney "owns".

Also, it's OK to make a movie out of a plot summary someone who read some book gave you, right?

You really think such things become legal if you have some ML algos in the loop?
