6G networks will host AI agents to automate enterprise workflows
Early work on 6G standards points to a shift from faster connections to built-in intelligence. Unlike 5G, which mainly improved bandwidth and latency, 6G networks are being designed as distributed computing platforms that can host AI agents directly in the mobile infrastructure.
These AI agents are expected to interpret business goals and trigger automated actions across devices and systems, handling complex enterprise workflows from within the network itself. In practice, that means companies could use the mobile network not just to move data, but to run parts of their operations as native services on the network layer.
