Right, but what if you commission an artist to create a work similar to an already existing piece of art and the artist decides that the most efficient way to do that is to just place the original piece of art in a photocopier, crops out the copyright notice and original artist's signature, and sells you the resulting print?

That's a violation but not what SD is doing. It's not copying it's recreating a similar (sometimes extremely similar image).
