The video tutorial explains the concept of the argument of a complex number, which is an angle associated with the complex number on the coordinate plane. It discusses the non-uniqueness of arguments and how they can be negative or exceed one revolution. The tutorial provides examples of calculating arguments for specific complex numbers, such as 3 - 3i, -7i, -2 + 2√3i, and -10, using visualization on the complex plane and reference angles.
