@cliffjones The issue of human authorship is interesting. In a hypothetical case, if I personally created an AI, then used that AI to generate a work, wouldn't that be a work of human authorship, with the Ai serving as a tool, just as if I had used a paintbrush or a word processor to create the work?
Of course, if one argues that the AI is exhibiting creativity in creating the work, that would contradict any argument that the AI is just a tool aiding in the expression of human creativity.

@brouhaha I'd say the AI is a tool, yes, but the lion's share of the creativity comes from the data fed into that AI system, the stuff that allows a simple prompt to become an image. All of *that* is coming from real human artists, and since we can't credit/compensate all of them, then it would seem pretty silly to me to call the person who wrote the prompt the sole artist.
