In June 2024, the European Union adopted the AI Act (AIA), its first comprehensive legal
instrument in this field. Notwithstanding the undoubted importance of the very adoption of this act, it is much less certain whether it will significantly contribute to more trustworthy and
human-centric AI tools and systems. Focusing on a critical examination of the provisions of AIA
dedicated to the prohibited AI practices, this paper argues that the answer is no, mainly
because of the AIA’s late adoption, as well as due to the fact that it did not go far enough in
regulating AI.
