Refik Üstok, Senior Network Architect, Docomo Euro-Labs
Speaking at the recent DTW Ignite event in Copenhagen, Refik Üstok, senior architect at Docomo Euro-Labs and standards delegate to the O-RAN Alliance and 3GPP SA5, sets out the role that standards and specifications bodies can play in enabling AI at scale as work by the 6G technical study group continues and Open RAN specifications evolve. He argues that standards bodies should provide the frameworks, interfaces and tools needed to make AI models interoperable, trustworthy and governable without constraining innovation so that AI’s role can evolve from being advisory to taking actions, and notes that this shift will be needed to enable autonomous networks and to introduce new 6G services, such as integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) and immersive communication.
