AI practices that are banned by the EU AI Act (Article 5) because their risks are deemed unacceptable. They include: subliminal or manipulative techniques that materially distort behavior, exploiting vulnerabilities due to age, disability or social or economic situation, social scoring that leads to unjustified detrimental treatment, predicting criminal offences based solely on profiling, untargeted scraping of facial images, emotion recognition in workplaces and schools, biometric categorization to infer sensitive attributes, and real-time remote biometric identification in public spaces for law enforcement (with narrow exceptions). These prohibitions have applied since February 2, 2025. Organizations deploying AI should review use cases against the prohibited list as a first governance step.
