India Just Set a Precedent for Enforcing Network Slice SLAs
India's telecom regulator now requires operators to treat each 5G eMBB network slice as its own tariff, with mandated disclosure of measured — not advertised — speeds, and defined non-compliance. TeckNexus examines what this regulatory precedent means for network slicing as a commercial product, how it differs from the enterprise-grade ...

Pegasystems: Calls for decision-tier governance to curb GenAI token costs for telecom operators
Pegasystems outlines that CSPs scaling GenAI will see rising inference spend as tokenized usage grows with agentic loops, retrieval, and context expansion, despite falling unit token prices. The analysis quantifies typical interaction costs (~$0.016 per 2,400 tokens; ~$160k per month for 10M interactions) and notes ~40% of tokens fund retrieval rather than business logic. It highlights latency and auditability pressures and recommends decision-tier routing and pre-invocation governance to choose rules, small models, or frontier LLMs based on complexity, risk, and value.
