Never doubt the ability of people's greed to force someone else into a court room.
Just look at the 'blurred lines' case where someone was inspired by a musical genre to write a song that didn't copy anyone's music but was still ordered to pay millions because he copied the general "feel" or "vibe" of someone else's work.

I imagine a lot of AI generated images might copy the "feel" or "vibe" of something in its training data.
