In my experience ONE person using the same seed will not be able to create the same image. I can feed an identical prompt into an AI artist 100 times and be handed 100 similar, but different pictures at the end. This may change as AI science evolves however.
Every AI image creator has blacklisted words/tags for preventing copyright abuse or prevent creation of offensive images. Most AIs won't draw you pictures of Disney characters (anymore). Many AIs won't draw pictures of Jesus or public figures like politicians. No AI on the market will draw you a gory execution. The managers of the AI in question just have to implement a blacklist about it and they can stop you from running prompts for whatever they want.
There's also nothing stopping you from sitting down at your desk and drawing a picture of Kirby with a pen. When you're done, do you own that image?
I agree with you that AI art shouldn't be copyrightable or at least, if it is, there should be some significant hoops to jump through. But I don't think the arguments given here are good reasons why.
I mean actual seed, not prompt. If you're using something like Stable Diffusion it gives a seed number with each image. Using the same prompt and seed number gives exactly the same image.
Only the ones you can't run locally. Most people still use Stable Diffusion because it's the most powerful and open, and that lets you create anything you'd want and allows you to train it on whatever you'd want. You can make a model based on 500 images of Kirby and it can make similar-looking images with the same art style.
This argument never made sense to me. If I'm drawing it, I put in the effort and made it with my own hands. AI image generators can mass-produce images. Not to mention that they're based off other people's work, not yours. It's not the same.
The seed is more like an address. It's a number that gets paired with the prompt to tell the model what variation of the thing it should output. Given the same seed and same prompt, the model will output the same image every time, no matter what.
