Nokia on June 11 announced an agentic AI framework for its Network Services Platform, saying it’s meant to help operators use AI agents with IP network operations. The framework will allow operators to deploy AI agents based on live network data and take guided actions within their own policy and security limits, Nokia said.
Nokia VP and IP Network Automation GM Sasa Nijemcevic said “trust remains the deciding factor” and described the launch as an “incremental, pragmatic step toward AI-native networks.” Appledore Research partner Grant Lenahan said “Domain expertise is likely the most critical quality” for complex network automation.
