The Artificial Intelligence (AI) revolution could boost Brazil’s GDP by up to 6%, according to a study conducted by Reginaldo Rodrigues, CEO of Cogtive. With over 15 years of experience in factory control and automation, Rodrigues emphasizes the urgent need for the adoption of Industry 4.0 in Brazil.

AI in Manufacturing: Opportunities and Challenges

The incorporation of AI in the manufacturing sector could potentially result in a significant increase in Brazil’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Rodrigues, who is also a mechanical engineer and automation and control specialist, bases this analysis on market studies and the experience of Cogtive, a software developer for industrial production lines.

The application of AI and machine learning solutions in industrial production processes, a hallmark of the transformation to Industry 4.0, has the potential to accelerate processes, combat failures and waste, and optimize production capacity.

Wasted Potential and the Impact on GDP

However, Rodrigues points out that in 2022, Brazil’s manufacturing industrial sector failed to generate R$ 500 billion due to the lack of utilization of hidden capacity, equivalent to 5.6% of GDP. This estimate is supported by a study from McKinsey & Company, which indicates that 30% of factories operate below their maximum potential.

The causes of this underutilization include unnecessary production line stoppages, inefficient labor allocation, and poor process management. Rodrigues argues that, thanks to modern automation and AI solutions, these problems are entirely avoidable.

Success Case: Ourofino Animal Health

As proof of AI’s potential in the industry, Rodrigues cites the case of Ourofino Animal Health. The veterinary medication company recorded a 29% increase in its production capacity after adopting Cogtive’s AI solution, called TÆLOR.

AI, Rodrigues explains, provides valuable insights through real-time data, combining machinery conditions with production line progress. This allows for the identification and correction of any issues before they result in delays and losses.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

While Brazil has been discussing bullet trains for 16 years, China delivers 5 new high-speed lines in 2026, surpasses 50,000 km of HSR, and moves 1 billion passengers in a single year.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

Few know, but India has a 36 km wall that surrounds a fort in the mountains and is considered the second largest in the world, behind the Great Wall of China.

Hyundai Creta 2029 appears in new spy shots with a completely revamped design, a more modern digital interior, a larger multimedia center, a more comfortable passenger seat, and electrification finally on the radar.

Former CIA analyst warns that China has already surpassed the US in missiles, electronic warfare, cyber, and military production, transforming the Pacific into a zone without safe spaces while Washington clings to its submarine advantage.

Home-built airplane by a Minas Gerais engineer uses car parts, such as a power window motor for the flaps and a tachometer on the dashboard. The project took six years, and the aircraft has autonomy to fly up to seven hours non-stop.
