Generally regulations should be enacted as a response to something major going wrong in the market. But the EU regulates before there’s even a single product on the market. How do you want to regulate AI if the technology completely changes every six months and nobody knows for sure where it’s going?
This is very likely not about AI but the EU DMA Ruling, which identified that Apple was implementing features in iOS which are restricted to Headphones of Apple-Brands [0]
As no other Headphone vendor is able to do this, this gives Apple the Accessory vendor a competitive advantage in the market of iPhone Accessories. So forces cannot flow freely in this market and the EU requires this to be rectified.
