European Commission - Approval of the content of the draft Guidelines on prohibited artificial intelligence practices established by Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (AI Act)

The guidelines provide an overview of AI practices that are deemed unacceptable due to their potential risks to European values and fundamental rights.

The guidelines are designed to ensure the consistent, effective, and uniform application of the AI Act across the European Union. While they offer valuable insights into the Commission's interpretation of the prohibitions, they are non-binding, with authoritative interpretations reserved for the Court of Justice of the European Union. The guidelines provide legal explanations and practical examples to help stakeholders understand and comply with the AI Act's requirements.

The Commission has approved the draft guidelines, but not yet formally adopted them
