    Anonymous, 10 Feb 2026I would say ban all AI chat bots. Problem solved. Why not this website also and basically all websites? After all we need governments to tell us how to think, we can't think ourselves you are right. We need father figures to control our actions.

      Zendroid, 09 Feb 2026EU should permanently ban Ai for everything! Yeah we need to become Cuba and drive 1950s cars. That will teach them!

      Ban the internet while you are at it, why stop to LLMs. That way we can go back to the ideal period that the 1970s were.

                                      Same trick the EU hit Apple previously regarding the USB type C port, which now even the GSMArena dare to recharge Apple devices using non-Apple genuine charger bricks and cables; media shouldn't pose an example to its audience how to void warranty... 😂
