the guardrails are probably going to end up being way too close together when the dust settles — imagine if something as simple as "young wizard" would be enough to trip the warnings. someone could be looking to do an image from Feist's early novels, or of their own work, & that will be verboten. it may turn out that we're facing the strongest copyright holders being able to limit everyone's legitimate use of these tools.

Unless it can exclude the copyright outputs and provide something else instead of blocking the inputs. I'm sure there's AI that can check if a picture is close enough to something in their database of copyrighted characters built up from some kind of DMCA-like process of copyright holders submitting examples of their work to be blocked.

Indeed, but where does it stop? Looks like Potter? No go. Hmm, looks like an illustration of Pug? No go. Looks like Simon the sorcerer. No go. Hmm, looks like a wizard from Infocom's Sorcers get all the girls. No go.

The problem is that it regurgitates what already exists and if you really want to abide by all the permissions then there is nothing left.

		The AI companies could always license all that copyrighted training materials. You can't claim there's no solution while ignoring the solution everyone' been using for ages just because these corporations told you so.

I would expect "young wizard" to generate something similar to Harry Potter more than Pug, tbh

		That's exactly what they meant.
