Article 9º-B, inserted into Resolução TSE nº 23.610/2019 by Resolução TSE nº 23.732/2024, requires that any use in electoral advertising of AI-generated synthetic multimedia content, to create, replace, omit, merge, alter the speed of, or overlay images or sounds, carry an explicit, prominent, and accessible disclosure that the content was fabricated or manipulated and which technology was used.
Paragraph 1 requires that disclosure at the start of audio pieces, by a watermark label and audio description for static images, and in both forms for video or combined audio-video pieces. Paragraph 2 excludes image- or sound-quality adjustments, graphic identity elements, and customary marketing techniques such as composite campaign photos from the duty.
The duty binds whoever is responsible for the advertising, which reaches a candidate, party, federation, or coalition, or a service that generates or places AI content on their behalf.
