It's the article inserting buzzwords. The EU banned "the use of real-time biometrics in public spaces".
You can still run facial recognition on specific pictures or video that has the perp of a crime on it, you just can't do it to everyone all the time.
Ah, that's very helpful context, thank you! Makes me significantly more excited about this
The EU has a general ban on "AI" or any sort of automation making decisions about people who are not aware of the exact criteria those decisions are made about.
That for example spares us from a lot of automatic CV screening as well as law enforcement profiling with AI tools. We do it mostly the old-school way of just having racist / classist cops.
