From www.claytonutz.com: Parts of the EU’s AI Act will commence on February 2, 2025, prohibiting certain AI systems deemed to present an unacceptable risk, including deceptive techniques and real-time biometric identification in public spaces.
The Act extends its reach to certain Australian AI systems, requiring a review of AI practices to ensure compliance with the new regulations.
Non-compliance with these prohibitions can lead to fines of up to €35 million or 7% of global annual turnover, with penalties starting on August 2, 2025.
