Review and update of the commission guidelines

These Guidelines constitute a first interpretation with practical examples of the prohibitions in Article 5 AI Act. The Commission will provide additional support to operators and authorities how to understand the prohibitions and collect further practical use cases on an ongoing basis with input from providers and deployers of AI systems, the AI Board and other relevant stakeholders.

The Commission will review these Guidelines as soon as this is necessary in view of practical experience gained in the implementation of the prohibitions and the pace of technological, societal, and regulatory developments in this area. This also includes any relevant experience from market surveillance enforcement actions and interpretations given by the CJEU on the prohibitions and other provisions of the AI Act examined in these Guidelines. During such a review, the Commission may decide to withdraw or amend these Guidelines. The Commission encourages providers and deployers of AI systems, national market surveillance authorities through the AI Board, the AI Advisory forum, the research community, and civil society organisations to contribute to this process by responding to future calls for public consultation.
