Fairly sure that was a case where the guy wanted to give the copyright to the ai algorithm itself and not about the copyrightability of the art. Specifically, he wanted them to be copyrighted as "as a work-for-hire to the owner of the Creativity Machine" - creativity machine is the name of the algorithm. Basically just a modern version of the monkey selfie kerfuffle.
