T-Mobile announced that the nationโ€™s largest, fastest and most reliable 5G, network is now offering enhancements in New Yorkโ€™s iconic Yankee Stadium. The Un-carrier worked with the New York Yankees to bring 5G into the world-famous ballpark, giving T-Mobile customers with 5G devices average speeds up to 10 times faster than before, with even more 5G upgrades to come.

โ€œYankee Stadium is home to one of the most iconic franchises in the history of American sports,โ€ said Neville Ray, President of Technology at T-Mobile. โ€œNow, New Yorkers and people visiting from across the country to catch a game have access to ultra-fast, reliable 5G so they can share more of that experience.โ€


To celebrate the introduction of T-Mobile 5G to Yankee Stadium, the Un-carrier and Major League Baseball sent a drone on a stadium tour featuring legendary former Yankees Hideki Matsui and Bernie Williams, then uploaded the drone footage to post-production using 5G.

The upgrades include launching Ultra Capacity 5G in select sections and, for those with older LTE phones, doubling the capacity for LTE in the stadium. Fans at Yankee Stadium will get even more 5G upgrades for the 2023 season.

โ€œWe are excited to have the power of T-Mobileโ€™s Ultra Capacity 5G network in Yankee Stadium and look forward to continuing to work together with T-Mobile to enhance the in-stadium experience for our fans,โ€ said Mike Lane, New York Yankees Chief Information Officer and Senior Vice President, Technology and Broadcasting.

With the fastest 5G network nationwideย andย the fastest 5G network in New York City, T-Mobile customers can do more of what they love like share high-resolution photos, livestream and keep up with their daily lives even faster thanks to the improvements.

T-Mobile is the leader in 5G with the countryโ€™s largest, fastest and most reliable 5G network. The Un-carrierโ€™s Extended Range 5G covers nearly everyone in the country โ€“ 320 million people across 1.8 million square miles. 235 million people nationwide are covered with super-fast Ultra Capacity 5G, and T-Mobile expects to cover 260 million in 2022 and 300 million next year.

Apple’s fall software updates introduce admin-grade switches to govern how corporate users access ChatGPT and other external AI services across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Apple is enabling IT teams to explicitly allow or block the use of an enterprise-grade ChatGPT within Apple Intelligence, with a design that treats OpenAI as one of several possible external providers. Practically, that means admins can set policy to route requests either to Apples own stack or to a sanctioned third-party provider, and disable external routing entirely when required.
India’s AI oversight for telecom is moving from recommendations to implementation, with policy review and technical workstreams running in parallel. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India has issued recommendations on leveraging artificial intelligence and big data in telecom, including the creation of an independent statutory authority for AI governance. The proposed Artificial Intelligence and Data Authority of India (AIDAI) is envisioned to promote responsible AI development and regulate sectoral use cases. The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology has initiated projects with research bodies and universities focused on how to ensure and test AI trustworthiness.
According to telecom experts, 6G communication is expected to be path-breaking in its offerings. Artificial intelligence (AI) is being portrayed as the prime contributor to the enormous success of 6G networks. AI is set to play a pivotal role in shaping 6G to be relevant and rewarding for businesses and individuals. Several other digital technologies gel well to present 6G as the game-changing phenomenon in the communication world. One noteworthy facet is that the recent concept of semantic communication is to be elegantly realised through 6G networks. In this AI-first 6G book, we have elucidated how the predictive, generative, and agentic capabilities of AI are to make 6G communication penetrative, pervasive and persuasive too.
