The article discusses the development of 6G (6G), which is still being defined by a specialized agency within the United Nations and is in a "study phase" with commercialization set for 2030. The article suggests that 6G is still evolving and will continue to do so beyond 2030. Experts suggest that the use of AI to help optimize network operations, but also to equip base stations with more powerful processors and use them as mini data centers to run more AI applications. Qualcomm's VP of engineering, John Smee, and CCS Insight's Ian Fogg, a wireless network research director, also suggest that companies are preparing for pre-commercial activities around the Summer Games in LA as a key stage to demonstrate 6G to the world. However, the article also questions the need for a GPU in every base station around the world, suggesting that AI could help operators identify which levers to keep the network moving forward and potentially enable real-time language translation.
