Purpose For information
Attachments Standardization Gap Analysis of the FG-AINN
Technical Specification - Vocabulary for Artificial Intelligence Native Telecommunication Networks” (May 2026)
Body
ITU-T Focus Group on Artificial Intelligence Native for Telecommunication
Networks (FG-AINN) would like to inform on the completion of the WG1 draft
deliverable “Technical Specification -Vocabulary for Artificial Intelligence
Native for Telecommunication Networks”.

WG1 draft deliverable “Technical Specification - Vocabulary for Artificial
Intelligence Native for Telecommunication Networks” has been completed as
output document FG-AINN-O-023 at the seventh FG virtual meeting held on 5 – 7
May 2026.

WG1 draft deliverable “Technical Specification - Vocabulary for Artificial
Intelligence Native for Telecommunication Networks” includes a set of common
terminology, definitions and concepts related to AI Native in association with
FG-AINN-O-024 (Study of concepts, characteristics and definitions of artificial
intelligence native telecommunication networks). The vocabulary is finalized
under the guidance of the "Principles for Building Concepts and Definitions
Related to Native Artificial Intelligence in Telecommunication Networks" (see
Appendix III of the deliverable) incorporating terms used in different
deliverables of FG-AINN and expert opinions through consensus building.

The final version of the deliverable is planned to be released on 30 November
2026.
