Ericsson, Mistral AI team up on network-focused AI agents
Ericsson and France-based Mistral AI are partnering to build and test AI agents for telecom network operations. The work targets concrete tasks rather than broad concepts: using AI to help migrate legacy code, support 6G research, and automate complex engineering workflows that keep networks running.
The collaboration reflects a wider shift in telecoms, where operators and vendors are looking to apply AI directly to network engineering and operations instead of treating it as a separate research track. The companies present this as a way to handle growing technical complexity and prepare networks for future standards like 6G.
