Artificial intelligence has gained prominence since the beginning of the year with the appearance of several applications that have reached the general population and have shown their tremendous potential. But if users have only now discovered what AI can do, it has been helping different sectors for some time now. One of the sectors that can benefit the most from artificial intelligence is logistics and transportation, where it has a major impact on one of its main challenges: the supply chain.
Inefficiencies to be resolved
As the outbreak of the pandemic revealed, logistics companies saw inefficiencies surrounding the supply chain. Ending inefficiencies is one of the main challenges facing the use of artificial intelligence in logistics.

The application of Artificial Intelligence in logistics and transportation in an automated way allows, for example, e-commerce companies and their value chain to work with large volumes of data, analyze them in real time and propose the best routes to move goods.
In short, with the use of automation and Artificial Intelligence in logistics has an impact on two essential aspects of the logistics processs for the company: a lower transportation costs as the quickest and least costly routes are sought, as well as a reduction of CO2 emissions as the most sustainable routes are also used.
