Article 5

Prohibited AI practices

A prohibition is the only finding in the Act that cannot be planned around: there is no conformity assessment, no documentation package and no mitigation that makes the practice lawful. Each of the ten bans is set out with the threshold that engages it, the carve-outs written into the paragraph itself, and the lawful-but-regulated practice it is most often confused with. Two of the ten are not yet in force, and the document says which.

What is inside

One run of 8 pages, taken from the document’s own contents rather than from a description written beside it.

  1. 01The practices that have no compliance route

How it was made

Every date, classification and quotation in this document is generated from the dataset behind this site, and the build refuses to write a file that contradicts the legal text: claims are checked against the Official Journal, page overflows and unreadable contrast fail the build, and every printed URL has to be a real link rather than text that looks like one.

That is why it cannot say something the site does not. If you find a disagreement between this PDF and the Regulation, it is a bug and we want to hear about it — tell us and we will correct the source rather than the page.
