TELUS AI Platform: Enterprise-Scale Telecom Innovation

Tech News & Insight
August 26, 2025
Hema Kadia

TELUS moved beyond experiments to enterprise adoption: 57,000 employees actively use gen AI, more than 13,000 custom AI solutions are in production, and 47 large-scale solutions have generated over $90 million in benefits to date. Time savings exceed 500,000 hours, driven by an average of roughly 40 minutes saved per AI interaction. The scale is notable: Fuel iX now processes on the order of 100 billion tokens per month, a signal that the platform is embedded in day-to-day work rather than isolated to innovation teams. TELUS designed for trust from the start: its Fuel iXpowered customer support tool achieved ISO 31700-1 Privacy by Design certification, a first for a gen AI solution.

Comcast moves Xfinity email to Yahoo Mail

Comcast is migrating Xfinity residential email accounts to Yahoo Mail, a shift that underscores how ISPs are offloading non-core applications to specialized providers. Comcast is transitioning existing Xfinity email mailboxes to be hosted by Yahoo Mail while allowing customers to keep their current @comcast.net or @xfinity.com email addresses. The migration is being phased, with customers notified by Comcast when their account is eligible and given guidance to complete setup. After migration, users access their mailbox through Yahoos web and mobile clients or supported third-party email apps. Mail, folders, contacts, and calendar data are moved as part of the process, with Comcast publishing specific steps and FAQs on support pages to reduce friction.

Hema Kadia

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.

5G in Automotive: Safer, Smarter Mobility

Tech News & Insight
August 18, 2025
Hema K

Automotive digitization now hinges on 5G’s ability to deliver reliable, low-latency, and scalable connectivity that 4G/LTE cannot sustain for safety-critical use cases. Advanced driver assistance, cooperative perception, and remote operations require millisecond-class response and deterministic reliability across dense traffic conditions. 5G Standalone (SA) with Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), improved positioning, and enhanced uplink meets these thresholds, enabling vehicles and infrastructure to exchange time-sensitive data continuously. This is the foundation for C-V2X, high-fidelity telematics, and closed-loop control that 4G/LTE struggles to support consistently. 5G enables dynamic traffic orchestration, energy-aware routing for EVs, and advanced safety services that can reduce incidents and congestion.

Federated Wireless recommends to Prioritize the 4 GHz Band for 6G

Tech News & Insight
August 18, 2025
Hema Kadia

The 4.44.94 GHz range offers the cleanest mix of technical performance, policy feasibility, and global alignment to move the U.S. ahead in 6G. Midband is where 6G will scale, and 4 GHz sits in the sweet spot. A contiguous 500 MHz block supports wide channels (100 MHz+), strong uplink, and macro coverage comparable to C-Band, but with more spectrum headroom. That translates into better spectral efficiency and a lower total cost per bit for nationwide deployments while still enabling dense enterprise and edge use cases.
