The proposal maintains the first five subpillars and uses a new one called Institutionality that integrates government and commercial strategies. The research subscribes to a descriptive, quantitative and analytical method of reviewing secondary sources and databases of organizations, companies, governments, among others. The findings show that there is a significant gap when comparing the AI ecosystem in Ecuador with the ecosystems of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, and Uruguay; showing an incipient use, adoption of this technology and the lack of public policies that encourage the use of AI as a means of social, economic and environmental development. |
