In a symbolic decision, the Federal Senate of Brazil approved on Tuesday, October 10, the bill aiming to establish guidelines for the use and development of artificial intelligence (AI) in Brazil. The text, a result of more than a year and a half of discussions, now proceeds to the House of Representatives for evaluation.
The bill introduces risk-based categories for AI systems and defines specific rules for their use. High-risk technologies, such as autonomous vehicles, biometric identification, and hiring processes, will require stricter supervision and safety standards. Systems with the potential to violate rights, such as autonomous weapons or tools ranking citizens for access to goods and services, will be prohibited.
Companies operating high-risk systems must conduct safety tests and prevent discrimination, while public agencies are required to ensure human oversight in automated decisions.
Another key aspect of the proposal is the protection of copyright. Companies using protected content for AI training will need to compensate creators, considering factors like company size and market impact. However, non-commercial uses by research institutions, libraries, and public archives will be exempt from payment, provided the original works are respected.
The initiative also includes measures to foster technological innovation. Small businesses will benefit from simplified regulations, and researchers will face fewer bureaucratic hurdles when developing new systems. Additionally, the proposal encourages cooperation between AI regulatory bodies and the Ministry of Labor to mitigate workforce impacts.
The Senate’s proposed regulation represents a significant step toward balancing technological innovation, security, and rights in Brazil. The expectation is that the debate will continue in the House, involving various sectors of society and the market.
