Huawei pushes AI-centric networks as telecom industry enters ‘Internet of Agents’ era
Huawei is telling telecom operators to rebuild their networks around artificial intelligence as the sector moves past the mobile internet phase into what the company calls the "Internet of Agents".
The vendor argues that operators should embed AI across both network infrastructure and services, so that software agents can take over more tasks from humans. This shift, as Huawei frames it, requires AI-native design in how networks are planned, run, and monetised, rather than bolting AI tools onto existing systems.
