Scope and Motivation
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into 6G networks is shaping
the future of telecommunications. Recent advancements in AI methodologies,
including embedded and Tiny ML, Large Language Models, Generative AI, and
Graph Neural Networks, combined with the rollout of experimental testbeds
by telecom operators, highlight both opportunities and challenges unique to
6G. This Special Issue (SI) addresses critical gaps by presenting
innovative frameworks and methodologies for AI-native and AI-enabled
solutions. Topics include network slicing, closed-control loops for
orchestration, zero-touch operations, dynamic resource management,
security, and net-zero carbon emissions. The SI explores how AI can
redefine the design, management, and operation of 6G networks, offering
insights that improve efficiency, reliability, and security, making it
essential reading for researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers
shaping next-generation connectivity.


*Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:*Topics of interest
include generative AI, predictive models, intelligent RANs, and other
advancements that will drive the convergence of AI and 6G, paving the way
for intelligent, adaptive, and future-proof communication infrastructures.
These infrastructures will support the dynamic landscape of IoT, immersive
technologies, and autonomous systems. We invite contributions that present
groundbreaking research and visionary ideas, addressing both theoretical
and practical aspects of AI's integration with 6G.
