@cliffjones If AI generated artwork is ineligible for copyright, then AI generated artwork also cannot commit copyright infringement.

@david1 Yeah, I feel like that's a pretty comfortable middle ground to settle at. Sure, you can tell Midjourney to make you something that looks suspiciously like somebody else's artwork (an actual working human artist), but you can't then turn around and sell those images (effectively competing with the original artist).

@cliffjones @david1 Of course, if you create too many free replicas of someone’s art, then you’ve killed the market for that art and have thus infringed copyright.
