Please see the second point. Essentially you cannot commit copyright violation if you don't distribute anything. Same concept.

These AIs are not being produced by the rights owners so it seems unlikely that they are being built without unauthorized distribution.

I get your point, but I think for the purpose of the thought exercise having the model built by yourself is better to get at the crux of "I am interested in making an image of a dead celebrity say nice things to me" especially since the ethics of whether or not building and sharing models of copyrighted content is a totally different question with its own can of worms.
