Human brain (any brain, really) is a natural neural network which is trained throughout its life the same way an artificial neural network is. Nothing is original, every creator is "stealing" from every other creator who's work they have studied to become better creators. No creator ever in history has created anything in pure, absolute vaccuum. Every creation is a remix and amalgamation of previously created works.
And intellectual property is a spook , anyway. No-one can own an idea.
But the big difference between us and the AI is that we have motivation and drive. We don't exist for a split second for the sole purpose of fulfilling a prompt. We can take what we've learned and create new things with it. The AI just spits out what it already knows. Not what is possible to do with what it knows. It cannot invent.
The human brain isn't a product that is being sold. Also in most cases, education is not free (school, university, ...)
Education is free in most of the world. And people sell their brains all the time. It's called "a job".
