Article 5 of the EU AI Act enumerates AI practices that are prohibited within the EU regardless of who deploys them. Examples include real-time remote biometric identification in publicly-accessible spaces by law enforcement (with narrow exceptions), social scoring by public authorities, exploitation of vulnerabilities of specific groups, and subliminal manipulation that causes harm.
Practitioners screening AI use cases need to recognize prohibited categories before engineering effort starts. Building toward a prohibited use case wastes runway and exposes the deployer to penalties.
