5G Advanced Lays the Foundation for a “Mobile AI” Era

Over the past five years, commercial 5G has achieved remarkable
success and made an unprecedented impact on the global
mobile industry. It has extended the breadth of global services,
delivered higher speeds for better experience, and deepened digital
transformation around the world.

5G continues to develop apace, with the first standards release for
5G-Advanced or 5.5G officially “frozen” this past June. More than
60 carriers and partners have also announced commercial 5.5G
deployment.

will extend to natural language, gestures, and emotions, delivering
on-demand, 24/7 experience.

Second, content generation will be revolutionized. Previously,

the future, such information will be generated by AI. Information
production will be no longer about prefabrication, but about
customization, making comprehensive and tailored real-time
services available.
