I have a question for the author of this stupid fucking article. What the fuck do you think half of the artists on the planet do? They use copyrighted images as reference when drawing fictional characters and they often end up looking very similar to the original. There are thousands of people on social media that sell these drawings on a regular basis.
That's not the point. If Joe the artist makes $25,000 a year breaking copyright, that doesn't mean copyright is now meaningless.
Yes but image copyright is fickle thing, because at what point does it become not a copyrighted image? I have to reference the "Ship of Theseus" thought experiment, because it does sort of apply here. A fictional character cannot be drawn from a first hand perspective, so some sort of copyrighted image HAS to be used as a reference. So where does one draw the line?
Actually humans are quite capable of creating art while having never seen art in their whole life.

So you're saying it's impossible for humans to create art without first seeing art? That creates a problem of how to first piece of art came from.
Also have you never drawn anything during class as a kid? Because I definitely did, my old notebooks are full of various drawings and I had no interest in art outside of boredom in class. Art comes from imagination, not nothing.

Humans can look at landscape, people, animals or even some random bullshit, add a dash of creativity and imagination to transform that into something beautiful. Or they can skip the first part and just draw something from their imagination, like I can draw a crazy foam monster while having never seen one.
On the other hand you can feed an AI millions of hours of public cctv footage and you will never get anything other than variations of cctv footage. AI don't have creativity and can't create art out of landscape, animals, people etc.

Actually monsters don't exist in real life but OK, here's a challage for you: Train an AI on images of foam and see if it can come up with an drawing of a foam monster.
I can tell you what you are going to get though: pictures of foam. Not drawings, not art. The human brain doesn't just remix existing input, creativity is a thing.
Also blind painters are absolutely a thing that exists.
