The ai will always be generating in the confines of its training data

...and a human artist will be generating within the confines of their total experiences, even ones they aren't consciously considering. Nothing is totally ex nihilo.

Not just their experiences, the mind can create things it has never experienced. Within the confines of what their mind can create, sure. It's just that one is knowably confined, one is unknowably confined, and COULD go outside of what we currently have.
