Anything created solely by AI tools cannot have a copyright. At least, that's my understanding of the current discussion among copyright lawyers. I have no idea what the implication for the license is. Can something which is not copyrightable even have a license or is it automatically in the public domain, i.e. ~CC0? I mean the AI cannot decide under which license it publishes what it produced. On the other hand, if the submitter did substantial (copyrightable) additional work then I guess they can claim copyright a stick a license on the joined work of the AI and them? Regards, Ingo
