When it comes to GenAI, Latin America is starting to embrace its potential in a variety of use cases, particularly in software engineering and customer service. In software engineering, 22% of organizations report using GenAI at scale to drive innovation by assisting with code creation, automating data management and generating IT architecture diagrams, while in customer service, AI is streamlining operations with AI chatbots, real-time agent support and call transcript analysis. Approximately 15% of organizations report deploying these customer service solutions at scale. Meanwhile, approximately a quarter of organizations are advancing GenAI applications in personalization, sales and digital marketing (27%, 23% and 24% respectively), although at smaller scale, through minimum viable products and pilots. Significant untapped potential remains in domains such as manufacturing and supply chain as well as in some back-office functions, such as talent analytics and finance. This highlights a major opportunity for organizations to harness AI-driven innovation that can unlock value across these domains.
