In North America, the United States and Canada lead the business adoption of generative and agricultural artificial intelligence, more clearly in cases of use and projects in progress, while Mexico advances with greater caution, according to the study “Maturity of you to adopt ia in America”.
The report, prepared by IDC and sponsored by Intel, is based on a survey of more than 460 organizations in Brazil, Canada, Mexico and the United States, and reveals that 97.6% of the companies consider that technology could have clear benefits in their operation, with improvements between 20% and 49%.
In addition to this, the expense is expected to grow at an annual rate composed of 32.9% to 477.8 billion dollars in 2028; However, more than a third of the companies surveyed have not invented their data and the lack of standardization between internal systems prevents the information.
“We can have very sophisticated models, but if the information is dispersed or is not standardized, the results will be limited,” Vudoyra, a specialist in Industrial Technology at Intel, told Efe.
An expanding market
In the business plane, the United States and Canada appear as the most advanced, with greater clarity in cases of use and more projects in generative and agricultural – technology capable of making autonomous decisions based on their environment; For its part, Brazil maintains dynamic adoption, especially in generative, with 56% of underway projects.
Mexico, on the other hand, shows a more cautious advance, because while the regional average is 56% for traditional and generative projects, in the country the generative reaches 51.9%.

In agricultural the regional average is 14.5%, compared to 13.1% of Mexico. In addition, 23.3% of Mexican companies have not yet initiated an inventory of their data, although this percentage is the lowest among the countries surveyed.
Institutional factors weigh
In the socioeconomic and government evaluation, which considers regulation, infrastructure and public policies, Mexico obtained the lowest qualification with 3.73 out of 5, compared to 3.9 in Brazil, the 4.07 of Canada and 4.14 of the United States.
For Vudoyra, this situation responds in part to the way the market operates.
“Mexican companies are curious to implement artificial intelligence, but they don’t know where to start. And many times the idea of waiting for technology to be more proven before adopting it,” he said.
The IDC-Intel report identifies several factors behind this position including technological infrastructure, where on average the country’s data centers operate with equipment of two to three previous generations, and the weakness of public-private alliances, which received only 35% approval in the survey, well below the regional average of 47%.
Despite the limitations, Mexico presents areas with high potential. The most widespread cases are concentrated in IT, Safety and Customer Service Operations, and companies see in the agricultural AI an opportunity to improve internal processes and consumer experience.

Carlos Rebellón, General Manager of Intel in Mexico, stressed that the country has strengths to make the leap.
“Mexico is the most industrialized country in the region and the one that proportionally graduates more engineers. The talent is, what is missing is to accelerate business adoption and close the gap with our commercial partners.”
In addition, although the global evaluation in policies and governmental environment was low, the public financing item in research reached 70.9% approval, which reflects a base on which to climb.
