This is why we need a rule that if you incorporate your logo into AI art, your logo becomes public domain.
This is technically already legal precedence in USA, copyright requires human expression and without sufficient human creative control in ML generated works they're effectively public domain
Edit: why downvotes?

Yes, for the imagery itself, but their logo is still under trademark. What I’m saying is if you put your logo on AI generated imagery and release it to the public, you no longer own a trademark for your logo.
That's not how courts are going to treat it. Public domain (lack of) licensing is not "infectious". Instead you can just cut out the trademark and reuse ML images because under current legal precedence they're in public domain but the trademark isn't
I understand that. I’m saying I want to change that.
Good luck with that
Because... why?
I'm guessing so the maintainers of the AI don't have to worry about copyright when it uses the logo somewhere unexpected. But I'm curious what OP says.
