It's the Malinese top-level domain from what I can tell. As to why it is favored, I can think of two reasons:
Commonly used to indicate the domain related to “machine learning”.
I'd probably say this is why it was chosen by the original devs as I hear they're outspoken communists. Other domains are likely just following suit.
