There are several reports of face recognition going mainstream, often in less than optimum circumstances, and often violating copyright and licenses

In my opinion building a model for face recognition is a derived work, and as such must credit the photographers. That pose a real problem when the photographers counts in the millions and billions. Even a 1px fine print would be troublesome!
What is the official stance on this? Is it a copyright infringement or not, does the license(s) cover the case or not?
