Abstract: In a highly competitive business environment, companies are looking for ways to increase efficiency and reduce costs in their production processes. The automation of industrial processes is benefiting significantly from technological advances, offering alternatives to achieve these objectives more effectively and efficiently. Automation and artificial intelligence have played a key role in transforming industrial operations, driving progress and efficiency across different sectors. Artificial intelligence, in particular, has impacted the industrial sector, driving advances in robotics, automation and operational efficiency, but also raising challenges in relation to social and economic aspects. Therefore, this work aims to address how artificial intelligence in the automation of industrial processes is essential in day-to-day industrial operations, as it allows repetitive, dangerous or complex tasks to be carried out more efficiently and safely. It involves the use of automated systems and equipment to carry out activities such as assembly, transportation, packaging, quality control, among others.
