We're the AI generated images from scratch or they are edits to some human image ?

DALL-E 2 does support 'inpainting' and 'uncrop' (zoom out, synthesizing edges) functionality which can be used to edit AI or human-generated images. I don't think OP used any (at least wittingly): one of the ones I looked at in OP were ones I recalled as inpainted/uncropped, those are relatively unusual compared to pure generation, and it'd be a bit unfair to include any.
From the videos I have seen of it in use, there is no way the prompts had existing material. One prompt was “painting of a goat in the style of the Mona Lisa taking photos with an iPad”. And it spat out 10 images which showed exactly that.
The only human input is the text prompt.
