I think the jury (no pun) is still out on whether gen-AI extruded content can be copyrighted. No doubt there will be a human in the loop "signing off" on the extruded product.

@gerikson

Underpaid artists in China and India "repainting" or "touching up” or "customizing” the images, like those mass-produced Thomas Kinkade prints that would have a few highlight dabs painted on by hand by someone.

Then, I assume, the AI-generated part would be protected the same way a Photoshop-generated background gradient would be as part of a completed image.
