"Minimal input" like pushing a button on a camera? Seems to me that is more minimal than some of the elaborate prompting it takes to get AI to output a desired image.

It goes away beyond this. You can create your own custom Lora. The tags that go into that, combined with prompting is sophisticated authorship.

It can be reasonably be considered technical than handling a professional camera.

I guess if the prompt is complex enough to be protected then the image would be too?

Gotta be 1,000 words.

What? Why? There's poems and stories shorter than that that must be copyrightable.

There's a saying, "a picture is worth a thousand words".

Regarding poetry, while I share your sentiment, what I notice in these discussions is that the emotional response to "done by AI" vs. "done by human" (or, on other forums, "done by furry") counts for a lot.
