Furthermore, what is the threshold for something to still legally be considered AI art once an artist's hand has modified it? What if they change the brightness? Fix a hand? completely replace a character in a scene? Illustrate most of the scene themselves but add an AI figure or background? Use AI to sharpen a hand drawn image?

It's a gray area. But if someone generates AI images at scale without human in the loop it's likely not copyrightable.

that means that openai cannot claim copyright on images produced by dalle generator. no can other online services and offline software owners/producers.

this is enough to use them without copyright violation for example for other ai models training.
