I'm confused why you'd be unable to create copyright characters for your own personal use.
You're allowed to use copyrighted works for lots of reasons. EG ~~satire~~ parody, in which case you can legally publish it and make money.
The problem is that this precise situation is not legally clear. Are you using the service to make the image or is the service making the image on your request?
If the service is making the image and then sending it to you, then that may be a copyright violation.
If the user is making the image while using the service as a tool, it may still be a problem. Whether this turns into a copyright violation depends a lot on what the user/creator does with the image. If they misuse it, the service might be sued for contributory infringement.
Basically, they are playing it safe.
It seems pretty clear it's a tool. The user provides all the parameters and then the AI outputs something based on that. No one at OpenAI is making any active decisions based on what the user requests. It's my understanding that no one is going after Photoshop for copyright infringement. It would be like going after gun manufacturers for armed crime.
It’s a tool to you. To someone less tech literate, I can see where they don’t see a difference between this and uploading a copyrighted logo to vistaprint or your custom credit card design.
