Again, VCRs and hard drives can't create content. They can only capture content. AI can create content, but it is not always original. Which is the problem. No one is trying to sue them over things that are credibly original.

It is no more legal for you to tell an AI to make you a picture of the Joker as it is to ask a human artist to do it. And if the human artist did it, WB/DC would be within their rights to take them to court because it would violate both trademark and copyright. They usually don't, but they are within their rights.

You can ask a VCR or a hard drive to draw you a picture of The Joker all day. They won't because they can't.

If AI was only capable of creating original artworks, this would not be an issue.
