It has literally nothing to do with plagiarism.
Every artist has looked at other art for inspiration. It's the most common thing in the world. Literally what you do in art school.
It's not an artist any more than a xerox machine is. It hasn't gone to art school. It doesn't have thoughts, ideas, or the ability to create. It can only take and reuse what has already been created.
The ideas are what the prompts and fine tuning is for. If you think it's literally copying an existing piece of art you just lack understanding because that's not how it works at all.
