Not at all. The ruling came from a federal district court, and since it was settled early, it was never reviewed by a higher court. It doesn't set a national precedent across the U.S.

And other district courts don't agree on this. The US district court for Delaware recently rejected a fair use defense for the use of copyrighted works to train AI. https://www.reedsmith.com/articles/court-ai-fair-use-thomson...

There are more cases in the pipeline. The massive NYT vs OpenAI is still ongoing. Nothing will be "settled" until this makes its way to the Supreme Court or Congress steps in.
