Pseudo-simian descendants of the kinkajou

This is the kinkajou:

It looks vaguely similar to a monkey - it has grasping digits on its forelimbs, it has a prehensile tail like some New World monkeys, and it primarily eats fruit - but it is a procyonid (that is, a caniform carnivore related to raccoons).

Now, suppose that over the course of a few million years, the kinkajou gave rise to a clade of procyonid-pseudo-simians, and that this clade of pseudo-simians gave rise to a species of sapient pseudo-hominid.

What similarities would it most likely have to humans?

What differences would it most likely have to humans?

EDIT: The environment it evolved in would be initially jungle, then open flatlands in South America.
