Telco Top Brass Need To Gen Up On AI - Poll Result
TelecomTV, Monday, July 3,2023
The whole communications networking sector is excited about the potential operational gains and insights that the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools could deliver for network operators, but a recent TelecomTV poll shows that one of the main hurdles the industry needs to overcome if telcos are to become AI-native organisations is the lack of AI knowledge among decision-makers.
AI was a recurring topic of conversation during the two days of TelecomTV's recent DSP Leaders World Forum event and was the primary focus during the very well-received session titled 'Creating a framework for the AI-native telco' that was co-hosted by Deutsche Telekom's VP of technology strategy, Ahmed Hafez - see Towards the AI-native telco.
A quick look at our AI/ML page on TelecomTV shows just how much activity there is around AI developments in the sector right now, including a major $5.4bn investment plan by South Korean operator KT in AI service developments.
