Nokia Corporation launched an AI Networking Innovation Lab, a collaboration hub the company said will accelerate co‑innovation with AI and cloud partners to advance next‑generation networking for AI infrastructure.
The initiative is positioned around the demands of large‑scale AI training and distributed, real‑time inference and brings together AI networking protocols, switching silicon, hardware platforms and new architectural concepts for joint validation across a partner ecosystem, the company said in an announcement.
