Using generative AI for your work can very likely result into your work not being copyrightable, at least in the USA: [Wayback/Archive] Famous AI Artist Says He’s Losing Millions of Dollars From People Stealing His Work
The guy who used Midjourney to create an award-winning piece of AI art demands copyright protections.

Now, in an ironic twist, Allen is upset that his work—which was created via a platform that’s been accused of ripping off countless copyrighted works—cannot, itself, be copyrighted, and is thus getting ripped off. In March of last year, the U.S. Copyright Office ruled that work derived from AI platforms “contained no human authorship” and therefore could not be extended copyright protections. Allen has been trying, since late 2022, to register his painting as a copyrighted work.
