If a recent forecast by Omdia is correct, telecommunications service providers will be spending quite heavily on artificial intelligence software over the next five years. Though AI will be a bigger capability for virtualized networks in the future, the current use cases often focus on customer service, especially call centers.
AT&T, for example, uses AI-assisted systems to optimize technician schedules, minimizing commute time, for example. AT&T reportedly recorded a seven percent reduction in miles traveled per dispatch and a five percent increase in productivity.
The AI incident management process also uses AI to detect network issues in real-time, even before the customers are aware there is a potential problem. It is said that AT&T has the ability to manage about 15 million alarms per day.
