Not your place to say what they say or do but you're doing exactly that? You're bringing politics into the comment and then throwing your hands up and saying "not my place to speak on this" when you are questioned about it.

I see many universities and colleges in Ontario (where I am), for example, that offer post-grad programs on AI. I can't find a single school that has outright banned it. Do you have a source for these claims you are making? I might be uninformed if it is an American or European school but post-secondary institutions in this country seem to be generally supportive.
