EU is set to propose ban on social media and AI chatbots for under-15s

The EU is preparing to propose a comprehensive ban on the use of social media and AI chatbots for individuals under the age of 15. This regulatory move aims to restrict access to these digital technologies for younger users across the member states. The proposal reflects the European Union's current strategy to manage the impact of artificial intelligence and social networking platforms on children, ensuring stricter controls over who can interact with these specific digital tools.
