Bluesky will comply with Australia's teen social media ban, according to an update that it put out today.
Although the company wasn't listed as one of the 10 companies assessed as definitely being in the ban, Australia's law is supposed to apply to all social media platforms

They show how he used Microsoft Copilot to ghostwrite speeches and messages to colleagues.
This comes as the government looks to push AI use in the public service.
