New transparency and risk-management rules for AI systems to ensure a human-centric and ethical development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Europe.

European Parliament substantially amended the list to include bans on intrusive and discriminatory uses of AI systems such as:

•  “Real-time” remote biometric identification systems in publicly accessible spaces;
•  “Post” remote biometric identification systems, with the only exception of law enforcement for the prosecution of serious crimes and only after judicial authorization;
• Biometric categorisation systems using sensitive characteristics;
• Predictive policing systems;
• Emotion recognition systems in law enforcement, border management, workplace, and educational institutions; and
• Indiscriminate scraping of biometric data from social media or CCTV footage to create facial recognition databases (violating human rights and right to privacy).
