The aim of this article is to analyse the impact of generative AI on artistic creativity, including the development of socalled art prompting. The discussion focuses on the presentation of the most important EU normative acts and national statutes on copyright in the context of the postulated concepts modifying the hitherto applicable definition of author. Examples of granting copyright protection to AI-generated works from around the world are discussed. The conclusions emphasise the indispensability of adapting legal regulations to technological and artistic developments.
