Because sometimes the generator just replicates bits of its training data wholesale. The "creative spark" isn't its own, it's from a human artist left uncredited and uncompensated.
Artists are "inspired" by existing art or things they see in real life all the time. So that they can replicate art doesn't mean they can't generate art. It's a non sequitur. But I'm sure people are going to keep insisting on this so lets not argue back and forth on this :D
