In this keynote presentation, ANTA Steering Board member Ahmed Hafez, SVP of network strategy and data & AI in networks at Deutsche Telekom, discusses the vast dimensions of the network that make scaling AI so difficult, the technical blockers of data readiness, data quality and the semantic layer, why operators need a strategic rather than random use-case approach, and the non-technical challenges of skills, organisation, mindset and moving from proof of concept to minimum viable product.
