I can't talk about every IA, but lots of IA models do not "scrambles it and rearranges unlicensed material". Neural networks for instance, try to imitate our brain, the same way you take inspiration in an existing game to create your own. And yes if an Art create by an IA is similar enough to another existing art, then that's plagiarism like how lots of humans do the same way.

And No, AI will never replace humans in making art, what will happen is the way we do Art will shift completely. For instance, instead of painting yourself you may now talk to an AI instead and artists in this "new era" will be most likely people that can take the most of the AI to create the best art pieces. It may be quite similar to what already happens nowadays with sculpting (we still have people carving on rocks) but it's way more common to find people sculpting 3D art in their PC (using Z Brush for instance) and 3D printing them or just uploading them.

Thereis examples of AI Art where signature of original artists popped up in the image.Rehashing is precisly what some of those nets do. It learned that for the thing the operator wants, that signature is important. Or those fake pictures of Trump with missing or extra hands. The net was trained with photos, obviously, and on photos hands are often not visible or you see extra hands from different persons.

Those nets that are trained with real stuff are not learning how to do the skill, but to imitate the result by rehashing. With frightenly accurate or creepy results in some cases. 

And with copyrighet material that poses legal risks that are not decided yet.  To put it blatantly oversimplistic,   you can view a trained ai as a filter, like those popular for selfies. And instead of one image you add effects to, you use hundreds images and add a little random and an objective for the result. Like, picture-bot, give me one with that Trump person sitting and eating a burger.  

But you still use  stuff that you might not have the rights to use or not use in that way. Real persons can do that in some scenarios. But that does not mean that tools (or their operators or the service provider that hosts the tool)   are allowed to do that in all scenarios.

I do agree there are AIs out there that steal other people work, but again: That's not to blame the AI itself, but the one who created.

If you train an AI using unlicensed material, that's the same of you stealing someone's work using the AI or not.

There are AIs out there that are trained only with CC0 materials, that are benefic specially for artists. Some of my artists colleagues use AI tools to make their texture tileable or to hide undesired imperfections.

So this falls back not to the AI itself but but rather on how people use (or create) it. Like how already happens with any polemic technologies like GMOs, gene editing and so on...
