Does YouTube allow massive scraping like this in their ToS?

Probably not.

Who cares at this point? No one is stopping ML sets from being primarily pirated. The current power is effectively dismantling copyright for AI related work.

Out of the loop apparently, could you elaborate? By "the current power" I take you mean the current US administration?

Trump fired the head of the copyright office:

The "Big Beautiful Bill" contains a clause that prohibits state "AI" legislation.

Trump has a "Crypto and AI czar" who is very active in promoting "AI" on his YouTube propaganda outlet. The same czar also promoted, pre-election of course, accelerated peace with Russia and then stopped talking about the subject altogether.
