AI is a tool. People use tools to create. This is like saying that everything that uses ink is public domain.
I get that there is an issue with people using AI to create highly derivative product and profit off of the original "inspiration's" notariety and skill - but this isn't the solution.
Did you read the article or any others about it? Human creativity is the heart of copyright law. If humans didn't make it, no copyright. At least under the latest ruling.
I think you missunderstood. What they're saying is using AI is still based on human creativity. A human comes up with a creative idea and uses a brush or an AI to visualize the idea. This opinion is built on belief that creative thinking is the heartof art and is more important than the physical process of crafting, the technique one uses to express the idea. There can be duscussions about that, of course.
