Anyone with half a brain cell knows they are a risk-reduction tool, not risk removal.

Idiots like to bleat on about the 1st amendment giving them the right to spout off whatever bollocks they want, wherever they like, but fail to realise that private companies and citizens have every right to tell you to shut the fuck up.
>> So if I am prompting using multiple artists am I violating copyright laws?
If it works anything like copyright in the music industry, where one "artist" (using that term loosely) samples tracks from other artists to create something "new". but is just 6 songs mashed together, then the artists seem to be out of luck.
