Brazil's pioneering AI regulation, Bill No. 2,338/2023, distinguishes itself globally through its unprecedented emphasis on human rights and social justice. Unlike the EU's technical standards-focused approach or China's algorithmic transparency requirements, Brazil positions human dignity and fundamental rights at the core of its AI governance framework.
The legislation introduces groundbreaking provisions for mandatory human rights impact assessments for high-risk AI systems, reflecting Brazil's constitutional emphasis on human dignity. This approach requires developers to evaluate potential discriminatory impacts and social consequences before deployment, particularly focusing on Brazil's diverse ethnic and socioeconomic populations. The bill's unique framework prioritizes protecting vulnerable communities and preserving cultural diversity, setting it apart from other global regulatory efforts.
