It's always a great pleasure to be at the #futurenetworld. It never ceases to amaze me how this platform has evolved from the very first event in the pre-covid era to what has now become a premium event in the "#techco" world. Kudus to Giles Cummings and the team. Some spontaneous reflections from the event. Journey from telco to techco. Everyday AI to Gamechanger AI ( there I said the magic 2 letter word. Fly on the wall isn't it?) Usman Javaid, PhD . We as operators must collaborate at getting the fundamentals right; we can always fight at how well we monetize it Laurent Leboucher. We as the Telco world have failed to utilize the full benefits of 5G and it disappoints me to no end. None other than Jaime Tatis (Mr insights :). missed catching up with you this time). The infectious passion and unrelenting drive towards automation by Mark Düsener. At the end and just before the mic drop. My 2 cents. We as CSPs are not very different in what we are trying to achieve. Generating value for our customers. All of us have access to the same toolkit, same technology, same monetization opportunity and same passion towards our customers. At the end it will be the following which would make the difference. a) visionary leadership coupled with a certain degree of risk appetite in creating the demand and simply not waiting for it to materialize. b) How well we are able to execute our plans with the right degree of prioritization by making incremental gains but at the same time never losing the focus from the target c) succeeding in nurturing the right exponential mindset in our workforce that gets obsessed with the value creation at all times. At the end of the day it will be the people, it will be the culture that will make the true difference; Not just reliance on the magic wand of AI. d) simplifying ( getting obsessed to rid of legacy and always thinking modular and abstraction), standardization ( north south east west) and always thinking about achieving scale. Lastly I made some amazing friends and how can I forget my fellow panelists. Hartmut Wittig (oozing magenta passion :)) Fahim Sabir ( witty and funny in his own unique way) and of course the one and the only Henry Calvert. It was great fun guys and until next time!

As we gear up for the 2030s, it's fascinating to consider how artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to have a profound impact on our daily lives. Ericsson's recent inquiry engaged over 6,500 forward-thinking individuals across 13 cities to explore potential AI scenarios that could unfold in the next decade. These self-identified early adopters speculate that nearly eight out of ten consumers will lean on AI to navigate critical life choices. Among various insights gathered, a striking expectation has emerged: future innovators could likely find success by occasionally sidelining AI recommendations. The exact impact of AI on our routines remains to be seen, but numerous applications have been envisioned—from enjoying movies starring digital doppelgängers of friends to personalized beauty enhancements dictated by AI. The study highlights a potential shift in consumer behavior, as some may endeavor to harness AI as frequently as possible, while others advocate for maintaining autonomy from AI-driven decision-making processes. This division hints at possible fragmentation in the adoption of technological advancements. The broader implications of AI in the next decade warrant thorough examination, encompassing concerns about privacy, bias, and job displacement. How do you envision balancing the convenience of AI-driven decision-making with the desire for personal autonomy in the future? #AI #FutureofAI #Ericsson
