Plus, is getting 1 billion bytes of randomness/entropy from your 1 thousand bytes of text input really <your> work?

I think what AI has made and will make many more people realise is that everything is a derivative work. You still had to prompt the AI with your idea, to get it to assemble the result from the countless others' works it was trained on (and perhaps in the future, "your" work will then be used by others, via the AI, to create "their" work.)

I would argue that most art around us is current pop art or classical/realist/romantic art, not modern/postmodern/abstract expressionist art.
