I'm interpreting what you described as a derivative work to be something like:

"Create a video of a girl running through a field in the style of Studio Ghibli."

There, someone has specifically prompted the AI to create something visually similar to X.

But would you still consider it a derivative work if you replaced the words "Studio Ghibli" with a few sentences describing their style that ultimately produces the same output?
