T-Mobile just announced Live Translation, an AI feature that translates phone calls across more than 50 languages in real time. Because the AI runs directly on the carrier's network via VoLTE, you don't need a dedicated app or even a modern smartphone—it even works on older flip phones. Calls aren't recorded or saved, and beta testers can trigger it by dialing 87.
Nvidia just launched AI Aerial, a computing suite for designing, simulating, and running AI radio access networks (AI-RAN). It allows telecom providers to optimize 5G and 6G networks while hosting edge generative AI workloads on the exact same infrastructure. Nvidia is also teaming up with T-Mobile, Ericsson, and Nokia to fast-track commercial adoption.
T-Mobile just teamed up with OpenAI to build IntentCX, a customer service platform powered by OpenAI's APIs and the new o1 model. Slated for rollout next year, the system parses support call transcripts to pinpoint customer pain points, aiming well beyond conventional chatbots.
