Hey! Good news everyone! The #SupremeCourt, by declining to overrule the #Copyright Office, has declared that #AI art cannot be copyrighted.
It's bigger than just Thaler's case though. (links below) What this means is that NO AI created work can be copyrighted. Not code, not verbiage, not art, not anything.
Only human created works are eligible for copyright, so sayeth the High Court.
Cory (@pluralistic) does a fantastic job of explaining the details and rounding up links. As he always does. Where he finds the hours in the day, I will never know. ;)

"#unmonetizablecontent, the Kryptonite of the platforms!
#Broderick's conclusion is that "as #platforms police speech less and less, edgelords lose their sheen," but that this material, at or beyond the edge of #copyright, unwelcome on platforms, is the future face of cool.
And here's where Broderick really got me: "the most dangerous thing for platforms is not racist garbage. It’s "unmonetizable content"."

If you understand the technology even a little bit, you will see that it is textbook for derived works. You can even sometimes prompt AIs to spit out the original work once they have copied it into their internal database.
