Chances are they were not involved in training the AI, and just provided instructions to a website like DALL-E. If I give you a paragraph of instruction to write a book, barring any other contracts we make, I would be surprised to find anyone arguing I could use that paragraph to claim copyright over your book. The threshold of creative input we require for such a claim is higher than "More than zero"

- philipov 4y agoTrue, but we don't need to assume that without a prior claim, the standard for awarding copyright bottoms out at nothing. Copyright exists to serve a specific purpose, to encourage people to make substantial investments that they would not make otherwise if they could not profit off them. If the investment is trivial to non-existent, there is no reason for the government to protect it.
