Ah, I remember this image. It received some kind of award or something and created a stir when it was revealed to be AI gen. I can see why that would be incentive to want copyright.
I play with AI image generation all the time. No way do I see that as my work, there’s no skill other than positive and negative prompts, maybe feeding it a a starter image set or something.
Where it might be more concerning is if you use AI gen to create an 2D example of something, then an artist creates a 3D physical representation of the thing. Who owns it? AI famously is not good at creating “whole” things, but one can certainly interpret that image to make a whole of it.
Right panel could do better.
Tax evasion, loopholes, offshore accounts, tax breaks, are all terms that belong as “steps.” Also, stepping on the person holding the “work” steps up should be part of it. Successful people almost all earn money on other’s work at some level. That’s how wealth and employment work.
