South Korean telco SKT has unveiled an ambitious plan to boost in-house adoption of artificial intelligence, including launching AI CIC, a dedicated company-within-a-company. With new tools like Adot Biz and targets reaching tens of thousands of employees, SKT is pushing to embed AI into daily operations — but what challenges might lie ahead?

In an all-cash transaction worth US$270 million, Ciena is purchasing optical connector specialist Nubis Communications. The action is intended to increase its data center networking capabilities, particularly in light of the growing need for AI workloads. How well the integration results in additional cost savings and performance improvements is still up in the air.
