This stuff you already know, but for the benefit of readers, here are 9 things every telco marketer can’t miss about AI.
1. AI for network automation: Automation and AI can help telecom optimise network performance, reduce downtime, and improve the quality of service. With the help of Radio Intelligent Controller (RIC), network operators can manage automation and AI more efficiently, enabling them to detect and respond to network issues in real-time. This enables the deployment of new applications and services that require high bandwidth and low latency. Automation and AI can be used to optimise network performance, reduce downtime, and improve the quality of service.
2. AI to improve the end-user experience: AI can improve the end-user experience in wireless networks in several ways. For instance, AI techniques such as machine learning (ML) can generate granular insights about network quality and user experience. This analysis can be done across a broader range of data sets than is used in today’s operations and at much faster speeds.
3. AI for telecom workforce: Gen AI can help telcos improve the efficiency of their workforce by automating repetitive tasks and providing intelligent insights. AI has become a cornerstone in the telecommunications industry, revolutionising how companies interact with customers and manage operations.
