I've heard arguments for both sides and i think it's more complicated then simply yes or no. what do you guys think?

I don't see why it is complicated. It should not be copyrightable because ideas aren't copyrightable.

Otherwise you definitely have to start fresh with AI and build new ones which somehow aren't trained on the pictures produced by artists.

Because if you copyright the idea behind an image, than definitely all AI produced images are infringing on the copyright of the art they used for training.
