Ok. So, it seems as usual I have missed the point here. Thanks for clarifying. So the point I'm to take away from this is that AI can't hold copyright over things they create? If the answer is "yes", then I ask. Can a human hold copyright over something an AI creates?

I am not a lawyer but the first question is probably a yes. AI is software and software does and can not hold any rights by itself as of today. The second question is what this post is about and the judge in the article said no, a human or company does not hold copyright over something AI creates. That does not mean, that anything touched by or created with the use of AI is not copyrightable. If you have your movie script error checked or rephrased with an AI tool it's still your movie script with your orignal ideas in it.
