Looks to me like OpenAI drew their guardrails somewhere along a financial line. Generate a Micky Mouse or a Pikachu? Disney and Pokemon will sue the sh*t out of you. Ghibli? Probably not powerful enough to risk a multimillion years long court battle.

Ghibli isn’t a character, but a style. You can’t copyright it.

I consider this article quite strong proof that generative AI is closer to copying than it is to creating a new derivative work.
