A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Where does the article you linked it say this?
The registrar does say this though.
I'm not accusing you of arguing in bad faith or intentionally spreading information, I'm letting you know that you're repeating the talking points of those who do.
Literally the next lines.
The copyright of the comic as a product is one thing, the copyright of the individual images is another.
Well, I am letting you know you are at this point, clearly ignoring the videos, and articles, and even not reading the article you've linked. As the article you even linked states clearly.
So you could go take the images out of the comic book and reuse them because they are not copyrighted.
You're begging the question by assuming such content hasn't been modified and could be taken in the first place. How would you know the content you're eyeing is usable without violating any rights or laws?
Copyright law is one big "It depends" making sweeping statements like made and the headline of the article you linked are oversimplifying the issue and presenting a false dichotomy of a much more nuanced issue. The Reuters article I linked presents much less biased coverage that doesn't gloss over important facts.
It really isn't, because copyright law, in basically all countries AFAIK, requires a human to have made the work. So you do not hold copyright for works generated by an AI. All of the sources agree on this.
Humans using the machines have always been the copyright holders of any qualifying work they create.
Sure, when they are creating the creative aspect of the work, not when the machine does. A work of a human can attain copyright, a work by machine cannot.
I'm glad we agree.
