CHARTER II, SECTION C

Prohibited Systems Register

The Prohibited Systems Register is the public record of AI systems and classes of systems designated as prohibited under Charter II. Designation follows a determination that a system falls within a prohibited category of Section A, or that it is subject to a moratorium adopted under Section B.

The Register serves public notice. The prohibitions of Charter II apply by operation of law: a system need not appear in the Register to be prohibited, and absence from the Register is not evidence of lawfulness. The full catalogue of prohibited categories is published in Charter II.

EFFECT

What Designation Means

An entry records the designated system or class of systems, the Charter II category engaged, the designating decision and its date. Where a moratorium rather than a permanent prohibition applies, the entry states so and records its terms. The consequences of designation for development, deployment, distribution and operation are those set out in Charter II, Section D.

Designations are appealable under Article 43 of the Statute. An entry is amended or removed where the designating decision is varied on appeal, where a moratorium lapses or is lifted, or where the Executive Board revokes the designation. Removal is itself recorded.
