Let’s say that I, a human being, create a work that is derivative of another. Technically the work I made could be subject to copyright because I am a human, but any claim I make to it is null because the derivative work is subject to the original copyright of the prior work from which it is derived. If I am creating a derivative work under license from the original copyright holder, I am doing so subject to the terms of that license, which may include terms specifying the downstream license under which I must publish the derivative work.
Substituting an AI agent in place of me in any of that sequence doesn’t change the nature of the relationship of the derived work to the original work.
