the funniest part is that copyright DOESN'T COUNT ON AI ART because of the monkey incident (peta indirectly helped artists in this case by allowing the monkey selfie, and thus all things not made by humans to be public domain iirc)
I think when companies do it they copywrite it as if the person who prompted the AI made it, and treat the AI like the "tool". That way they can copywrite it.
i read it somewhere that nobody can copyright material that is not made by humans, but i don't know anything about copyright tbh
still funny that a monkey that was curious about a random camera made people question copyright at one point
