I'm pretty sure if the output of the code could be seen as deterministic, that is to say the code just makes what will be produced 1000 times quicker, then the work would be copyrightable but if the output is not deterministic then we cannot say to whom the copyright should belong.

Only creative expressions are copyrightable. Purely functional expressions are not.
