Uses of AI that the EU AI Act bans outright because they pose an unacceptable risk to fundamental rights.
The EU AI Act defines a top tier of unacceptable-risk practices that are forbidden. Examples include social scoring by public authorities, manipulative techniques that cause harm, untargeted scraping of facial images to build recognition databases, and certain uses of real-time remote biometric identification.
Because these carry the heaviest penalties, organizations should screen any planned AI use against the prohibited list before investing further.
