1 month agoThere’s also changing from circuit to packet switching, which also drastically changes how the handover process works.
tl;Dr - handover in 5G is buggy and barely works. The whole thing of switching from one service area to another in the middle of a call is held together by hopes and dreams.
As much as I hate the concept, it works. However:
It only works with generalized programming. (E.g. write a python script that passes csv files) For any specialized fields this would NOT work (e.g. write a DPDK program that identifies RoCEv2 packets and rewrite the IP address)
It requires the human supervising the AI agent to know how to write the expected code themselves, so they can prompt the agent to use specific techniques (e.g. use python’s csv library instead of string.split). This is not a problem now since even programmers out of college generally know what they are doing.
If companies try to use this to avoid hiring/training skilled programmers, they will have a very bad time in the future when the skilled talent pool runs dry and nobody knows how to identify correct vs incorrectly written code.
