#3: I haven't been following AI-generated art in particular, and therefore the odd thing about that article for me is that it omits any mention whatsoever of the central issue in the debates about copyright on AI-generated code: what about the material the AI was trained on?

In code, this seems to be the primary concern. An AI coding assistant is trained on a large body of code, and its output is at least in some sense a derived work of all of that code. Is it a derived work for copyright and licensing purposes? Lots of people don't want to risk it. So companies will adopt policies of telling their developers never to use AI coding assistants – meaning both "don't put their output into our products" (with risk of, e.g., GPL contamination) and "don't expose our proprietary code to systems that will feed it into the AI training set" (with even more obvious risks).

But apparently for art purposes this isn't even in the dialogue, and the question is just: is this image copyright to the AI artist, or is it not copyright at all? The third option of it being (at least in part) copyright to someone else isn't even mentioned.

Yes, that article completely ignores that the art is produced by a plagiarism machine and that's why it doesn't deserve copyright protection.

I love all the Robin William story, including Zelda - but I *really* *really* love Pink running the agility course. Happy huggy smirkie, here.

The agility course run was very impressive. But here I was, expecting to see the singer Pink running some kind of course after reading that! :D

Oh, I haven't looked at that my I would expect the singer too. In fact, I'm struggling to parse the sentence any other way... :-)

Sorry sorry - she's very dangle-from-silken-ropes, so an agility course would be within her capabilities. :)
