It is unclear whether redistributing an image created by AI using a copyrighted image as input would be allowed. The level of human input in the creative process plays a crucial role in determining copyright ownership. If an AI-generated image is solely the result of an algorithm without any substantial human involvement, the ownership rights may not extend to the human. However, if there is significant human input in the creative process, the copyright ownership may be more complex. Additionally, even if an AI-generated image is not substantially similar to any preexisting image, the generated output could still infringe one of the copyrighted elements found within a preexisting work. Therefore, it is important to consider the potential copyright implications before redistributing an AI-generated image.
