If a human copies or traces over another artist's work and then presents it as their own, that's widely considered immoral and in some cases it's illegal. The difference between taking inspiration from other work and copying that work relies on the actions and intent, but in the case of AI both of those are obfuscated and we only see the end result. I think this makes it very difficult to gauge whether particular AI work is problematic.
