Tomorrow's tech, today
Innovation powers the future. From creating the next generation of customer experiences to breakthroughs in healthcare or agriculture, we're pioneering advances in connectivity while ensuring everyone benefits from them fairly and safely.
AI TECHNOLOGY
Smart solutions for growth
AI will redefine telecommunications, unlocking endless potential to drive expansion. We're continually inventing new AI-driven ways to benefit our customers and enhance our business activities. For example, we're ambitiously integrating cutting-edge GenAI across our operations, and making customer experiences faster and smoother with our world-class AI chatbot.
How Vodafone is using AI to benefit our customers
Robust security solutions
AI technology plays a central role in our customer security solutions, for example, it can help improve user authentication and detect cyber security threats through faster data analysis and reporting. By identifying suspicious patterns, it also serves as a powerful fraud detection tool
Vodafone amplifies call center innovation, customer service, and employee inclusion with Azure AI
A new era of customer experience
Our virtual assistant TOBi uses AI to elevate customer experiences across our markets. The chatbot, powered by IBM’s world-class technology, responds to queries with fast, intelligent and friendly answers. TOBi understands over 90% of our customer needs, can give complex answers, and even makes necessary account changes.
Where we're heading with AI
We're on an ambitious journey to drive future enhancements in customer service and operations using AI. Developments include tools that will spot manufacturing errors early to prevent injuries, reduce our emissions with smart energy-saving networks, and add voice functionality to enhance our chatbot.
We're also growing our partnerships to develop and integrate GenAI tools. For example, we're growing our long-standing collaboration with Google Cloud to include applications such as AI-automated documentation to streamline our engineering processes, plus machine learning that accelerates product launches.
GAME CHANGER
What is Quantum Computing?
A computing revolution
Quantum computing is a telco game changer. By powering exponentially faster processing, it can transform data analysis tasks and solve ultra-complex problems, bringing vast opportunities to accelerate value for our stakeholders. For example, we’re exploring how quantum technology can make customer experiences better and safer by detecting network anomalies, locate antennas for maximum efficiency, and future-proof cyber security tools.
