It depends on your definition of "is". In reality it depends on the original art and how it's transformed. But legally it's whatever benefits capital (aka your boss). I wouldn't bet against your boss paying off the courts, lawyers, etc.
Ok so if I don't generate capital from it theres no crime? You can see how the original argument that all copying is copyright breach. Then you can infinitely dig into this - is my monitor copying pixels on my screen copying? What about the browser cache? So copyright can only be argued from the pov that breach has to be capital generating or direct damage creating like using that data for libel or something.
