Point 1(a) of Annex III classifies RBI systems as high-risk. Such systems are deemed worthy of high-risk classification, since technical inaccuracies in the system may lead to biased results and entail discriminatory effects (especially on the grounds of age, ethnicity, race, religion or belief, gender, sexual orientation or disabilities) and RBI may lead to the feeling of surveillance and have a chilling effect on the exercise of fundamental rights , such as the freedom of expression and the freedom of assembly and association.
The two subsections below describe (i) the scope of the high-risk use case point 1(a) of Annex III and (ii) the requirement s for authorisation of certain law enforcement uses of post RBI systems under Article 26(10) AI Act.
