PwC’s Global Artificial Intelligence Survey found that 75% of business executives see AI as a business benefit and report that they are already using AI or plan to use it. According to a McKinsey global study on AI, 50% of companies have implemented AI in at least one business function, and 71% plan to expand their use of AI in the near future. These insights highlight the importance of mobile networks that can support AI workloads in the future. 5G is estimated to generate $12 trillion in global economic output by 2035, and AI-enabled devices will play a key role in transforming industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, and logistics. The need for networks to manage AI workloads has never been greater.
“In today’s rapidly evolving digital environment, staying ahead of the curve is essential for businesses to grow. That’s where Verizon comes in. We don’t just provide connectivity; we… We provide cutting-edge solutions that enable our customers to anticipate and adapt to change, which is why entire major industries choose Verizon,” said Karapara.
Verizon was the first to launch mobile edge computing and continues its global leadership in edge computing capabilities. Verizon’s collaboration with NVIDIA to power AI workloads on private 5G networks represents a significant advancement in enterprise AI capabilities. Scheduled to be available for demonstration by innovation partners in February, the solution will enable enterprises to deploy powerful AI applications at the edge to drive innovation and efficiency across a variety of sectors.
