@sp332, yes, sorry. I meant to reply to the top level comment.

Current guidance is that AI-generated works are not copyrightable:

'If a work’s traditional elements of authorship were produced by a machine, the work lacks human authorship and the Office will not register it 26 For example, when an AI technology receives solely a prompt 27 from a human and produces complex written, visual, or musical works in response, the “traditional elements of authorship” are determined and executed by the technology—not the human user. Based on the Office’s understanding of the generative AI technologies currently available, users do not exercise ultimate creative control over how such systems interpret prompts and generate material.'

There is some nuance to the document, but prompt-only works seem pretty clear.
