except lawyers keep saying "fanart is actually technically illegal" and resinging/changing lyrics in songs isn't enough to be protected by "fair use" stuff

if anything, I'd campaign for "we should limit copyright because it already doesn't work for Ai"

I wasn't intending to include fan art.

Copying Miyazaki's style ... or copying Monet's style... those aren't fan art.

Why not? I’m a fan of X and make art in the style of X using the tools at my disposal (AI). Why is that not fanart?
They are. I meant the subset of fan art of the infringing type where you make fan art of, say, Mickey Mouse and sell stickers.
