Abstract

En este informe de la Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (CEPAL), elaborado en el marco de la Alianza Digital Unión Europea-América Latina y el Caribe, se examina el modo en que la inteligencia artificial (IA) está comenzando a transformar la economía de América Latina, así como los factores que limitan su pleno aprovechamiento. Mediante un enfoque novedoso, se desarrolla un modelo teórico y econométrico que permite estimar el impacto macroeconómico de la IA en distintos países, teniendo en cuenta su efecto sobre la productividad del trabajo calificado y la interacción entre distintos factores productivos. En el análisis se combinan datos internacionales con una evaluación empírica específica de la situación regional. Además de medir y cuantificar el impacto de la IA, el informe describe algunos obstáculos clave, como el bajo nivel de inversión en IA y las limitaciones en materia de formación de capital humano, y ofrece lineamientos de política pública orientados a cerrar las brechas estructurales. Esta publicación constituye una herramienta de utilidad para los encargados de la formulación de políticas que buscan impulsar un desarrollo productivo e inclusivo en la era de la transformación digital.
