This is a very new area where law has not caught up. Surely in any creative process (book author, painter) there is a process where the artist selects and omits elements before the final product.

Is not the selection and omission of poorly generated images the "human authorship" [1] necessary to qualify? Or can OP modify AI generated art meaningfully to qualify for copyright?

Additionally the choice of the model is an important choice too. Some AI art collections even make their own derivative models where a human picks extra images to train off of.

It reminds me of 3D art where there is a lot of up front work in making models, textures, armatures, and shaders. You send a ton of data to the GPU and it spits out a rendered image or more likely a tile of one.
