If that's true, then it should be fine for that human to paint with the brush of his AI tool. Why should that human artist be restricted in the types of tools he uses to create his artwork?

Should I be restricted in using copy paste as my tool for creating art?

    No you should not. You should be able to use any tool you want.

    If you produce a work that is too much of a copy from the original, you might be liable to a copyright claim.. but the act of copy and paste should not be prohibited in the generation of something new.

    This is done all the time by artists.. who perhaps create an artwork by copy and pasting advertisements out of a womans magazine to create an image of a womans face made only of those clipping. Making a statement about identity creation from corporate media... we should not put restrictions on such art work.

    Here's just one example of an artist using copy-n-paste of content they don't own to create something new:
