You supplied the brief but subcontracted the work.
Ultra simplified answer is they squint at loads of images that match the prompt to get a fuzzy outline of what that image is then fill back in the detail to get new art that sorta matches what the prompt is.

Subject: The Ever-Changing Urban Landscape: A Reflection on Gentrification
Author: UrbanEnthusiast
Greetings fellow urban explorers,
As the editor of urban75.net, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on a topic that has been a constant undercurrent in our discussions over the years: gentrification. Our beloved cities are ever-evolving, but with change often comes a complex mix of emotions and concerns.
Gentrification, in many ways, embodies the dual nature of urban development. On one hand, it can bring revitalization to neglected neighborhoods, breathing new life into once-decaying areas. This can lead to improved amenities, safer streets, and a sense of community pride that is genuinely heartwarming to witness.
However, on the other hand, gentrification can also bring about displacement, rising living costs, and the loss of the unique character that made these neighborhoods so appealing in the first place. It's a challenging issue that requires careful consideration and open dialogue.
I encourage all of you to share your thoughts and experiences with gentrification in your own cities and neighborhoods. What are the positive aspects you've seen? What are the drawbacks? Have you witnessed any successful efforts to mitigate the negative impacts of gentrification?
Additionally, let's remember that our community is diverse, and our experiences with gentrification can vary greatly. It's essential to approach this discussion with empathy and an open mind, respecting the diverse perspectives that exist here on urban75.net.
In the spirit of urban exploration, let's continue to engage in constructive conversations about the ever-changing urban landscape. Together, we can better understand the forces at play and work towards more inclusive, vibrant, and sustainable cities for all.
Looking forward to reading your insights and stories.
Warm regards,

or 
4.0 and paid, yes.
I still don't have the image generation / understanding yet (Dall-E 3), but apparently that's coming.
Because the visual working out/problem solving is done by an AI system, which makes the prompter someone who commisions the image, rather than someone who solves visual problems to create an image.
AI turns a text prompt into an image. How is that different from someone saying to an artist 'I want you to draw me a picture of a dog, and make it a german shepard, etc etc'?
I find the argument gets even more confusing when you consider that Damien Hurst didn't literally put the shark in formaldehyde, he got his assistant to do it.
I use it for work so I'm going to try to claim it as an expense. Haven't spoken to boss yet, but I'm sure he'll agree.
Right. But they're conceptual art pieces, and conceptual art and copyright is a really interesting grey area (I've done a bit of a search on it and it would seem moot, with some saying that if a work is about the idea, or process it can't be copyrighted, but photographs of the work can, and there's effectively an honour system within the artworld which prevents people copying said pieces, etc etc but it's insomnia-yet-I-must-get-up-at-8am oclock and I need not to go down a 'oooh shiny information' ADHD rabbithole), and isn't the same as commercial/more traditional/more reproducable, work
That's how they got away with filming all those herbie movies.
when you commission an AI image creation system to create an image for you, you're enlisting the skills of the people who create and maintain said system, and the skills of the artists that have created the images said system has been fed. Which is why you can use prompts to directly rip off the visual problem solving of living artists like Greg Rutkowski (This artist is dominating AI-generated art. And he’s not happy about it.). It's a tool which subcontracts the act of image creation after all.
It's also important to distinguish between 'fine art' and 'illustration' in that fine artist create and execute the brief, and illustrators are more likely to simply execute other people's briefs.
