Even if I grant your premise that their produce is novel -- I don't, that is fundamentally not how they work -- the copyright would be held by the bot in that case, not the person who used it.

No more than a person who commissions a painting has copyright for the work. That's not how creativity, LLMs, nor copyright law works.

The LLM is a tool. It’s like granting copyright to a paintbrush.

Exactly. Which is how we know that calling what it does inherently creative/novel is absurd and must be wrong. Glad you came around.
