Half of Brazilian companies have already entered the age of artificial intelligence, but the data reveals an important gap between adopting a tool and transforming operations with it. Adoption reaching 50% puts the technology at the center of corporate strategies, while the fact that only 15% have reached the advanced stage shows that maturity remains the main challenge. AI adoption has already reached half of Brazilian companies 50% of Brazilian companies already use artificial intelligence, according to the Unlocking the Potential of AI in Brazil 2026 study, conducted by Strand Partners for AWS.
