Note this refers to the internal commission meetings

> The European Union's executive institution has a new ground rule that bars virtual assistants powered by artificial intelligence from participating in its meetings

perfectly sensible IMHO. Afterall, the companies behind these things have not been security cleared in any way. Europe needs to do what it needs to do!
