Artificial intelligence could increase South America's gross domestic product (GDP) growth by at least one percentage point annually by 2035, according to Accenture Research's report How artificial intelligence can accelerate South America's growth. The report calls attention to this technology's potential to transform the region's labor market and create a new relationship between humans and computers. In Brazil, for example, the study noted that the so-called gross value added (GVA) could increase by a total of $432 billion in this 17.5 year period. In terms of banks, the study reports that seven in ten bank users trust the financial guidance provided by automated systems. Some 39% of users consider the use of robo advisor platforms an agile tool and 31% see it as a way to lower costs for both banks and their customers.
