Global AI in Telecommunications Market to Reach $5.64 Billion by the End of 2025

A report from Research Moz finds that the global AI in Telecommunications market is projected to grow from $340 million in 2018 to $5.64 billion by the end of 2025 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 41.9 percent in the forecast period. An excerpt from the report description reads:

There are a number of different AI technologies that may be useful in telecoms. These include:

Self-optimising networks (SON), where the networks goals and limits are set by designers, and the networks control software works within those boundaries to make the network as efficient as possible;
Deep neural networks may enable machines perform human like tasks, allowing them to help digitalizing the business and providing better customer engagement;
Software defined networks (SDN) and Network Function Virtualisation (NFV) will increase the diversity of possible traffic through the network. Both services and bundles will be able to become more sophisticated, with customers even able to interact with the services behind the network.
As telecom companies are adopting technologies like virtualization, SDN-NFV, orchestration; Artificial Intelligence is going to play a big role in smooth integration of these technologies and automating the networks. Using AI and data analytics, operators will be able to identify and push various services to the customers at the right time, for e.g. in case of post-paid customers, operators must encourage high speed data services and offer tailored data packs when subscriber is running low on data.
