The Five Nine: Will AI save or sink telcos?

Nvidia made headlines in October when it announced plans to invest $1 billion in telecom vendor Nokia to develop AI-RAN solutions that use its GPUs. But do GPUs even make sense for AI-RAN? We sat down with Orange's Atoosa Hatefi and Dell'Oro Group's Stefan Pongratz to dig into the different flavors of AI-RAN, what would compel telecom operators to spring for GPUs and what the overall market forecast looks like.

AI isn’t just a compute story. It’s also a networking story. And today’s networks may not be up to the task. Agentic AI and the data pipelines required to feed those agents are set to bring a wave of traffic and strain to networks around the globe. So how can the industry solve this problem? We spoke with Dave Ward, currently CTO at Lumen Technologies and soon to be President and Chief Architect at Salesforce, as well as Paul Savill, who is Global Practice Leader of Networking and Edge Compute at Kyndryl, to get our arms around the problem. #AI #networking #datacenters #networks #AgenticAI
