AI ethics, tech regulation and the rising currency of trust
AI advances come at a time when several societal undercurrents are moving in different directions. Public trust in companies has fallen to a record low. Political discourse and geopolitical alliances have polarised. In contrast, the influencing power of consumers has increased to record highs, with the millennial generation prepared to vote with their feet. Social media platforms have shattered all barriers to expression but, in so doing, have become unwitting conduits to a ‘post-truth’ era. In this context, what are the implications for the future viability of self-regulation in the tech sector and the changing value of corporate reputation and trust in the eyes of consumers?

Reshaping networks: from a 5G core to an agentic core
Building on previous reports on the evolution of core networks in the 5G-Advanced and AI eras, this report explores what agentic AI means for the mobile core. For the mobile core, most key objectives are unchanged: building future-proof networks that can support a growing and diverse range of endpoints (users, devices and applications) while efficiently delivering intelligent services at scale – all underpinned by a monetisation imperative. But new dynamics have entered the space, from the rise of agentic AI to the sharp focus on sovereignty and mission-critical connectivity. As such, a fresh review of the evolution of mobile core networks is needed.
