개요

Electoral propaganda using qualifying AI-made or altered synthetic multimedia must carry an explicit disclosure, and new synthetic content using a candidate’s or public figure’s image, voice or expression is barred from 72 hours before through 24 hours after the election ends; a September 2026 TSE ruling clarified the deepfake ban’s electoral-propaganda scope.

심층 분석

The Superior Electoral Court (TSE) regulates electoral advertising under Resolution 23.610/2019, as amended, including by Resolution 23.755 of March 2, 2026. Article 9-B requires the person responsible for electoral propaganda to disclose explicitly, prominently and accessibly when synthetic multimedia made with AI or equivalent technology is used to create, replace, omit, merge, change the speed of, or overlay images or sounds. The disclosure must say that the content was fabricated or manipulated and identify the technology used. The rule covers different media forms and has special placement requirements for printed materials. Article 9-C separately prohibits deepfakes in electoral propaganda. The TSE’s September 1, 2026 decision defined deepfake for that provision as realistic or plausible synthetic content produced or manipulated by AI that creates, reproduces or alters the image, voice or expression of a living, deceased or fictional person. The Court held that applying this specific prohibition requires the content to be electoral propaganda. That matters: an AI recreation is not automatically an electoral violation merely because it exists or appears in a political setting; context and legal classification matter. The 2026 rule adds a blackout period: publication, republication—even without payment—and paid boosting of new synthetic content using the image, voice or expression of a candidate or public figure are barred from 72 hours before until 24 hours after the election ends, even if labeled. TSE materials state that propaganda is permitted beginning August 16, 2026. These are election-specific binding rules and interpretations, not a general Brazilian ban on deepfakes or a platform-wide transparency law. Other removal, disinformation and platform obligations apply under separate provisions.

The Future of Brazil’s Election Rules on AI and Deepfakes

The 2026 rules apply to Brazil’s general election cycle and the TSE has already issued a binding interpretive thesis in September 2026. Teams should check the latest TSE consolidated Resolution 23.610, court decisions and election calendar immediately before publishing because a new ruling or supplemental resolution can clarify application. Maintain a dated record of the official text and check for new laws, court interpretations and agency guidance before each material update to policy or system use. Election officials and platforms may issue additional implementation details as voting approaches.

실제 구현

A campaign labels an AI-altered candidate video clearly and accessibly and identifies the technology used.

A platform blocks posting, reposting and paid promotion of new synthetic candidate or public-figure media during the statutory pre- and post-election blackout.

A fact-checker distinguishes a realistic AI recreation used as election propaganda from any synthetic parody or convention clip outside that legal context.

A campaign team keeps records of synthetic generation, editing, labels and publication times so it can show compliance with the TSE rule.
