Should a randomly-shuffled deck of cards be considered art? After all, the card shuffling machine created something which statistically has never existed before. Every shuffled deck should belong in a museum, right?
On the other hand, prompting AI for "pelican riding on a bicycle" clearly shows that it has far more trouble with unique concepts, compared to prompting for something more cookie-cutter.

You and the top-level commenter fundamentally misunderstand the mechanisms behind diffusion models. They are able to create original art and are not just shuffled cards.
