Copyright initially held by a company expires 95 years from the year of its first publication or 120 years from the year of its creation, whichever comes first.
Copyright initially held by an individual expires 70 years after the individual dies. That could easily be a longer period than company-held copyright.
That would certainly benefit companies developing generative AI. The sooner something loses copyright protection, the easier it is to use it as training data.
Copyright is already finite.

There’s no limit on lengthening copyright. Currently it’s 95/120 years, but that can always change (and did for many years of lengthening).
I say, just reducing that time, or make it case dependent would be a great start
