Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman is embarking on an innovative journey with his “Secret Mountain” project, which aims to blend generative AI with music, animation, and interactive storytelling. This initiative not only seeks to empower Indian creativity but also aims to create a multicultural virtual band that transcends geographical boundaries. By leveraging advanced technologies like AI and XR (Extended Reality), Rahman envisions a platform where diverse cultural identities can come together to create immersive musical experiences.

Generative AI (GenAI) is beginning to make its mark on mobile network data patterns, signaling a transformative shift in how we interact with technology. According to the latest Ericsson Mobility Report, while GenAI currently accounts for a modest 0.06% of total mobile network data usage, its unique traffic characteristics are already diverging from traditional mobile app behavior. Notably, GenAI-related usage exhibits a striking 26% uplink share, compared to the typical 90:10 downlink-to-uplink ratio.
