What if I do it myself? Do I still need to get permission? And if so, why should I?

I don't believe the legality of doing something should depend on who's doing it.

Yes you would need permission. Just because you’re a hobbyist doesn’t mean you’re exempt from needing to follow the rules.

As soon as it goes beyond a completely offline, personal, non-replicatible project, it should be subject to the same copyright laws.

If you purely create a data agnostic AI model and share the code, there’s no problem, as you’re not profiting off of the training data. If you create an AI model that’s available for others to use, then you’d need to have the licensing rights to all of the training data.
