At least some countries are saying AI outputs are copyrightable; the UK 
for example: 
https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/copyright-and-artificial-intelligence/copyright-and-artificial-intelligence

So you could impose license obligations on the output of an AI tool, at 
least in some places. In the USA, likely not although that's still an 
issue of dispute within the courts.
