In a press conference this week on New York City’s $12 billion budget gap, Mayor Zohran Mamdani zeroed in on the previous administration’s artificial intelligence chatbot as one of “a number of different things we’re going to pursue for savings.”

I believe he banned raspberry pi devices, which is dumb.

Edit: they were banned from an event, not banned in general.

    From the inauguration, which is kinda weird but understandable if you're not very tech savvy. He didn't ban them from new york in general

    Ah, that makes much more sense. Going back to double check things, I article I saw user the wording "he banned them at the inauguration", which I understood as "during his inauguration, he signed a bylaw which banned raspberry pi devices".

    Thanks for the correction!
