This isn't about the current state of AI, this is about laying the foundations for the legal framework and infrastructure for AI in the future, when all of this stuff is feasible.

That to me means we are talking about the current state of AI.
I don't disagree with setting a legal framework around ownership of AI derived art. However, I don't think this is a pressing issue. AI art, outside of maybe simple picture generation, is bad. AI books are terrible. And I don't see it getting any better.
I'd be shocked if in the next 5 years there's any hit AI art generated. Heck, I'd be shocked if it happens within the next 20 years.
It's funny that you focused on that instead of the rest of their comment. By "20 IQ points" they clearly mean it in a metaphorical or analogous way to humans, of course they are not literally measuring the IQ of an LLM.
Sure, you can ask it to draw a beach, but can you ask it to draw the SAME beach with a character interacting with items on that beach?
The current simplistic versions of this have very tightly bound environments for the characters to interact (I'm thinking endless Seinfeld).
