Place-based predictive policing falls outside the prohibition
A police force uses an AI system that scores the likelihood of crime in different areas of a city, based on past crime rates per area, street maps and supporting information, to decide where to deploy more patrols.
The official source remains authoritative. This is general information about obligations and not legal advice. See this object on the map

What this object links to
Every relation appears below as a path: from the source with its locator, through the conditions and exceptions of the object carrying the relation, to the consequence. A locator belongs to a statement in the data and not to a relation, so the source is the source anchor of the carrying object.

What this object states
Official fact
Attributable to a named primary source, with a locator. Where they differ, the official source prevails.
The Commission guidelines on prohibited AI practices treat this case as a worked example under Article 5. The document is non-binding: authoritative interpretation rests with the Court of Justice.

Our interpretation
Our own reading. It can change without the law changing, and it is not the position of a supervisory authority.
Place-based prediction falls outside the prohibition, but only as long as the area score does not become an element in the profile of an individual, because that turns the assessment person-based.
