What is called "artificial intelligence" in this context is actually just a statistical method, so the "intelligence" that results from this can hardly be seen as something different than a derived database. You transform OSM data into another state.

To be more specific, it is taking OSM data, aerial imagery data and source code and 
using all three sources of data to produce a new dataset.

This is probably underexplored part of a copyright, but at least some cases would
certainly have the same copyright as OSM data.

it is logical to me that in most useful cases would be a derivative of OSM data
and aerial imagery data, but copyright law is not famous for making sense.
