I don't believe there is such a legal precedent as you describe. Regarding your specific example, there is currently a multi-billion dollar class-action lawsuit against Copilot, for commercial copyright infringement damages.

Sorry for confusion, I didn’t mean a legal precedent I meant practice precedent. Specifically, I meant that the legality of these practices have not yet been determined. They are in a grey area. We’ll see if legal precedent is set by the lawsuit you referenced. It’s not at all obvious that current laws apply here.
