I guess there is the fundamental difference here.

I have a simple rule when it comes to AI artwork in creative products: Absolutely not.What do you see as the difference?
Use it at your table for personal stuff (AI icons for characters in a game... sure).
The problem I see with all those who are trying to say AI art is copyright infringement is that it's using a massive existing database of media to create new art. That is what the vast majority of living human artists do. So long as you're not trying to pass work off as an original you can create close facsimiles of existing art and sell them. Otherwise there wouldn't be categories of art, like 'Impressionist'. Only a vast collection of individual and unique pieces of art that couldn't be labelled by a category.
Now, don't get me wrong... I don't particularly want AI generated art on my walls. Hell, I'll take that a step further and say I'd rather have actual paintings and not prints of those paintings. But in a board game or RPG books? Couldn't care less. I'm not going to hang them on my wall.

I'm certain artists will still call AI generated imagery art theft, 5 years from now.
There will be very few full-time professional artists below the "I sold my paiting in a gallery for 20,000 bucks" level who don't use AI themselves in their work in five years.
There are very few artists selling things above 20k.
I think Angus McBride would have failed to hit that target. And he definitely would not have got there if he could not make money doing books.
You may be right, but you better hope you are not.
So create a sword that does lots of heat damage. Then fuse that with a changing item - a sword hilt.
