An American multinational technology corporation, IBM and GSMA has announced a new collaboration to support the adoption and skills of generative artificial intelligence (AI).
This program will benefit the people from the telecom industry. Through this collaboration both the companies have launched GSMA Advance’s AI Training program and the GSMA Foundry Generative AI program.
A digital version of the program will be available to help address both the business strategy and technology fundamentals of Generative AI.
The training program will address the GSMA and IBM will help address the gap in AI skills, training and tools, supporting GSMA’s commitment to operators of all sizes across the world.
Alex Sinclair, Chief Technology Officer at the GSMA, said, “Artificial Intelligence provides the telecoms industry, and the societies it serves, with huge opportunities to launch new services, improve connectivity and customer experience.”
“Overall, it’s estimated that AI could contribute $15.7 trillion1 to the global economy by 2030,” Alex Sinclair added.
The training program, designed for telecoms leaders, will span a wide range of topics, from fundamental AI principles to specialized Gen AI applications in telecoms.
The GSMA Advance AI Training sessions will be held at IBM offices in five locations in 2024 including Dubai, London, Mexico, New York and Seoul, and an online training program will be available in multiple languages.
This program will leverage IBM watsonx to deliver hands-on training designed to equip architects and developers with in-depth practical Gen AI knowledge.
The AI training program, the first in a new series of courses by GSMA Advance, seeks to prepare telco leaders for the AI-era and bridge skills gaps in the telecom industry.
