The Wednesday update by both firms revealed that Microsoft will tap the fixed and mobile connectivity offered by Vodafone.
The agreement to integrate generative AI components seeks to transform Vodafone’s customer experience using the generative AI tools offered by Microsoft. As such, all customer touchpoints of Berkshire-headquartered Vodafone will benefit from the implementation of Microsoft Azure’s OpenAI Service.
Among the touchpoints to benefit from the Microsoft OpenAI Service is Tobi, the digital assistant made available by Vodafone in 13 service countries.
Vodafone employees will gain access to the AI tool Copilot from Microsoft. The telecom giant will leverage the latter to transform their working practices, improve digital efficiency, and boost productivity.
