The AI-Native Telco: Transforming the Telecom Value Chain in the AI Era
As telecom operators navigate increasing network complexity, evolving customer expectations, and the transition toward 6G, AI has emerged as a strategic imperative. Yet, for many organizations, isolated AI deployments have delivered incremental gains rather than transformative business outcomes. Realizing the full value of AI requires a fundamental shift from applying AI to existing processes to redesigning operations with AI at the core.
This Point of View, written by Dean Ramsey, Chief Analyst, Omdia, in partnership with Tata Consultancy Services, explores the vision of the AI-native telco, where intelligence is embedded across networks, IT, customer operations, and business processes. The report outlines how operators can move beyond fragmented AI initiatives and build an intelligent, adaptive enterprise capable of accelerating innovation, improving operational performance, and unlocking new growth opportunities.
