Take website builders like Squarespace and stuff like that, you can be super good at using the tools to generate an excellent looking page and do it in a fraction of the time it might take someone else. Sure its a skill, one you probably spent time and effort developing, but it doesnt make you a web developer and if someone uses the tools to exactly copy your work pretty much exactly, yeah that sucks but your just using someone elses tools.
Or building a really cool and “unique” car using off the shelf aftermarket parts. Theres literally nothing stopping someone else just doing the same thing using your car as a template.
I think you, like most people, think you can get the same AI image by typing the same thing. But when you’re really trying to create something, knowing how to use layers, in-painting, Photoshop, and tweaking prompt strengths along with switching engines, takes legitimate skill to create a good AI assisted image.
But because I hate the idea of copyright and art hording, I appreciate that none of it is copyrightable.

IMO the guy kind of has a point but mostly not.
