Pure "prompt → image" with nothing in between I absolutely agree. It's lazy and ripe for abuse by copyright trolls. That being said there's a lot more in the world of AI assisted art than what most people are aware of.

Determining where the legal lines will be drawn is going to be a monumental task but I think there's value in allowing authors to retain copyright on AI assisted works. I also can't see the free open source models not going the way of restricting training data to public domain works like Adobe did with Firefly if that becomes a legal issue.
