• Cerillion’s Nov. 2, 2026 analysis finds telecom operators need trusted operational systems and controlled autonomy to make agentic AI commercially valuable.
• The analysis cites Gartner’s forecast that AI inference costs per agentic workflow will increase more than fivefold by 2028.
• Efficient orchestration would reserve expensive reasoning for complex problems, keeping deterministic tasks in conventional software.
• Customer agents could shift telecom sales toward machine-to-machine transactions, increasing the importance of discoverable products and reliable billing systems.
• Operators’ competitive advantage lies in proprietary operational context rather than widely available foundation models.
