If you take a photograph of someone else’s copyrighted work, that doesn’t make it a new piece. For example, look at how Valve is rejecting games that use AI generated art: https://twitter.com/simoncarless/status/1674285134374404096

That's true, which is why the photography analogy holds.

It makes sense you can't clone exact types of art, but mixing and mashing two or more to make something totally new and derivative is fine.

Ok but how mixed and mashed does it need to be before it’s not considered derivative? And how do you know that the thing the AI generated isn’t a clone?
