The once-prophesized future where cheap, AI-generated trash content floods out the hard work of real humans is already here, and is already taking over Facebook.
Even if we rewind to before the advent of AI generated images, if someone were to take his photo of his art, and painstakingly use Photoshop to create a believable second image with a different person standing next to it representing it as their own without giving him any credit, we would call that process “stealing”.
No, we would call it copyright infringement if it indeed was. Or if not that you would have to find some other specific legal theory.
Stealing generally applies to property and intellectual property is a misleading term used to describe certain other rights not related to property law.
