An article by auxiliary judges of the National Council of Justice (CNJ) on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in producing and assessing judicial evidence was shared by the Organization of American States (OAS) during a workshop that brought together more than 40 magistrates from the Americas, from August 10 to 12, 2026, in Washington, D.C.
Titled “The judge as gatekeeper: AI-produced evidence and the OAS agenda for the Americas”, the text had been published by Consultor Jurídico (Conjur) on August 8. It addresses the criteria that allow magistrates to assess the authenticity, reliability and admissibility of content generated or altered by AI.
Given how easy it is to manipulate visual, audio and text resources, the authors stress the importance of auditing not only the result of the evidence, but also the process and conditions under which it was built.
According to one of the authors, who heads the National School of the Judiciary (Enaju), sharing the article places the Brazilian contribution in the international debate and broadens the School’s research agenda on AI, digital transformation and evidence.
