Using AI to collect information is the most common way to use this technology. This data collection and its ethical use pose difficulties in the wide adoption of AI. In this matter, Blockchain can help by storing the AI mechanisms that process data on a distributed and decentralized registry, which will help secure personal information. In blockchain solutions, users can control access to their personal information by using private and public keys. AI-powered blockchains can provide decentralized identification to protect user identity. Various companies are using Blockchain and AI together in diverse applications. Most advanced economies have adopted AI and Blockchain as essential strategies to gain and enhance competitiveness in the South America market. Government initiatives and the increase in use cases of combining Blockchain and AI are expected to be a major trend during the forecast period.
