Lead MEPs call for predictive-policing ban
By EUobserver
The lead MEPs in charge of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act are now calling for a ban on predictive policing systems — a key demand of civil society groups. Under the draft report, finalised on Monday, predictive policing has been added as a prohibited practice. The report will be discussed in the European Parliament's internal market and civil liberties committees on 11 May, with a vote expected in late October.
