How about if I use Stable Diffusion, running 24/7 on a massive set of parallel clusters, and file for IP protection on all of the resulting images?

What potentially human-creatable images have I just taken ownership of?

Let's extend: what if I claim IP ownership of every image which StableDiffusion could produce?

The main reason is that you can’t, because only a work produced by a human is eligible for copyright.

For example, it has previously been litigated that nobody has IP ownership of an image taken with a camera by an animal.
