Nah. That's just propaganda. The copyright people make that stuff up to help their argument against fair use and to drown out the likes of the Internet Archive or the EFF.

In truth, these exceptions don't matter for Meta. They also offer these models as chatbots; as a service. That brings back all those useless bureaucratic hoops. The exceptions would matter for small players, but the copyright industry has pretty much neutralized them anyway.
