With that line of argument you can sue developers of 2d painting programmes and producers of graphics tablets. And producers of canvas, brushes and paint. Maybe even the landlord for renting out a studio? It's all means of production.

You make an interesting point, but I can't help but feel it's not completely the same and you're reaching a bit. I feel like it'd be closer if GIMP, next to shape tools for squares and circles, literally had a 'Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker' shape. The crux of the issue as I see it in this part of the legal debate is whether or not AI companies are willing participants in the creation of potentially copyright infringing media.

It reminds me a bit of the debate around social media platforms and if they're legally responsible for the illegal or inappropriate content people keep uploading.
