If I paint a melty clock hanging off of a table, how have I stolen from Salvador Dali? What did I "steal" from Tolkien when I drew this?

you stole ALL movies, started your own Netflix with them

The model in question can't even try to distribute copyrighted material. You could have easily checked for yourself, but once again I find myself having to do the footwork for you guys.

If you sell your melty clock yes, it not "stealing" but you are violating copyright, that's how it works

The "model in question" is a bit of a prototype, I thought is was clear we are talking about where these models are going.... Maybe you'd get it if you came down of your high horse

Dali doesn't own the concept of a melting clock. If I include a melting clock in my own work, as long as it's not his melting clock with all the other elements of his painting, it's fair use.

GPT hasn't been a prototype since before 2018, and the copyright restrictions are only getting tighter every time it's updated so idk what you're on about.
