No legislation is required because creators' rights do not derive from
an Act of Congress in most parts of the world.  The U.S. notion that
copyright serves purpose to promote progress is completely alien to
other jurisdictions.  If they recognize the right to personal property
at all, they view the right to intellectual property as a basic human
right, growing from exactly the same source as other property rights.

I find that all well and good for works created by humans.  AI is not a human so it is not obvious to me how the concept of "property" or "rights" apply to output generated by a machine.

It's not clear to me how this shapes the conversation much.  At best it seems to lend itself exactly towards what the US consensus is, but I feel like that wasn't your intent.
