Telecom providers have spent over $300 billion since 2018 on 5G, fiber, and cloud-based infrastructure—but returns are shrinking. The missing link? Network observability. Without real-time visibility, telecoms can’t optimize performance, preempt outages, or respond to security threats effectively. This article explores why observability must become a core priority for both operators and regulators, especially as networks grow more dynamic, virtualized, and AI-driven.
Selective transparency in open-source AI is creating a false sense of openness. Many companies, like Meta, release only partial model details while branding their AI as open-source. This article dives into the risks of such practices, including erosion of trust, ethical lapses, and hindered innovation. Examples like LAION 5B and Meta’s Llama 3 show why true openness — including training data and configuration — is essential for responsible, collaborative AI development.
Network APIs are redefining the telecom sector, enabling real-time services, secure mobile payments, IoT support, and cross-industry innovation. With projected market growth to $30B by 2030, telecom leaders are focusing on standardization, ecosystem collaboration, and developer engagement to unlock the full value of APIs in the 5G era.
