In July 2025, RCR Wireless News published a Market Pulse Report on Telco AI. The report includes key statements provided by DOCOMO Euro-Labs’ director Riccardo Guerzoni in the panel “Will AI be pivotal in 6G developments?” at the Telco AI Forum held in June.
RCR Wireless News recently convened a broad panel of industry experts at the Telco AI Forum to discuss adoption and scaling of artificial intelligence (AI) across networks and operations. The Telco AI Market Pulse Report is meant to encapsulate those discussions and explore how predictive, generative, and agentic AI can unlock substantial operational efficiencies and significant new revenue streams, provided they are built on scalable cloud architectures, coherent data strategies, and strong ecosystem partnerships.
The report includes key statements by DOCOMO Euro-Labs’ director Riccardo Guerzoni, who participated to the panel “Will AI be pivotal in 6G developments?” at the Telco AI Forum held in June. Riccardo described ongoing 3GPP work on AI lifecycle management and data governance, with the likely introduction of a dedicated data plane in 6G to handle massive volumes of data from core, RAN, and user devices. He also expanded on the role of Open RAN in introducing AI models and energy-aware optimization agents, which may support the realization energy efficiency design principles in the 6G era.
