Artificial Intelligence (AI) is disrupting industry on a broad scale and telecoms is no exception, offering the potential to cut through network complexity, address new requirements, increase performance and enable automation
5G, IoT and Edge computing bring complexities to network operations with the co-existence of new and legacy digital technologies, hybrid network technologies, and an ever-increasing number of connected devices. New emerging use cases are giving rise to different requirements and may require further performance enhancements and optimisation of networks. Alongside this, there are underlying considerations such as high operating costs, crowded markets and a struggle to leverage and analyse large volumes of customer data.
AI can be effectively used to cut through this complexity, address new requirements, increase network performance and enable automation.

The AI Expert Working Group will identify opportunities in AI telco where the UK can lead and explore potential to capitalise on emerging trends. As Chair, I am committed to leading an impartial, accessible and inclusive group, developing and implementing strategies that drive positive change, working collaboratively with stakeholders, and creating an environment that encourages open communication and fosters innovation.”
