# The .ai rules: 14 things you cannot do with a .ai domain

December 21, 2023 · Summary of an article by Andrew Allemann, Domain Name Wire

As a country-code domain, .ai sets its own usage rules. The list of prohibited content and activities grew from seven items to 14.

Domains that break the rules are suspended and not reactivated, even if the owner promises to fix the content. One rule targets false "trusted by" claims, which could catch some AI startups.
