It is absolutely infringement if you paint a picture in Ghibli style. You just have fair use to infringe in a personal, noncommercial, educational, etc. purpose. Fair use is a defense to infringement, like self defense is a defense to homicide. If you infringe but are noncommercial, it is more likely to be ruled fair use. If Disney did a Ghibli style ripoff for their next movie, that is clearly not fair use. OpenAI is clearly gaining significant material benefits from their models being able to infringe Ghibli style.

You can’t copyright a style, e.g look at the fashion industry.

  But do not look at the music industry, because a lot of what people would think of as style is a melody, score, composition and so on.

> It is absolutely infringement if you paint a picture in Ghibli style. Only if you copy their characters. If you make your own character and story, and are replicating ghibli style, it is OK. Style is not copyrightable.

> It is absolutely infringement if you paint a picture in Ghibli style. Of course not because by this twisted logic every piece of art is inspired by what comes before and you could claim Ghibli is just a derivative of what came before and nobody has any copyright then...
