At Network X 2026, Huawei showcased AI Service Function (AISF)—an agent enablement platform that uses AI to help operators reshape core home broadband services and drive the shift from connectivity to intelligent experiences. Through live demos of smart video watching, immersive 3D entertainment, AI-powered smart homes, and mobile home services, AISF showed how it enriches the home ecosystem, enhances user experience, and expands operators' service boundaries.
AISF is a network-side AI agent platform designed by Huawei for operators. By working with Huawei smart devices and third-party devices, AISF helps operators build smarter and more personalized home service experiences. From smart video watching and immersive 3D entertainment to autonomous smart home control and secure access to home services anytime and anywhere, AISF is reshaping the home ecosystem. Ultimately, AI is changing the way users interact with content, devices, and networks.
At the exhibition, Huawei demonstrated AISF's capabilities across several key scenarios:
In the smart video watching scenario, the AI home assistant understands voice commands and performs operations such as content search, program recommendation, and device control. Through multi-turn dialogue and context memory, the system continuously refines recommendations, turning the screen from a content portal to an intelligent companion that truly understands users. This lowers the barrier for elderly users and multi-member households, making large-screen home services more natural and intuitive.
In the immersive 3D entertainment scenario, Huawei demonstrated a home 3D viewing experience. By integrating smart home terminals with 3D display capabilities, users can enjoy audio-visual content with a greater sense of depth and immersion right at home. The related technologies enhance the 3D effect while preserving image clarity, opening up a new path for home entertainment.
In the AI smart home scenario, the AI agent learns users' daily routines and automatically coordinates various types of home devices accordingly. For example, when users return home, leave, watch videos, or rest, the system adjusts lights, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, and curtains—minimizing manual effort. The solution also supports cross-brand, cross-ecosystem device collaboration, helping overcome the fragmentation that plagues today's smart home experience.
In the mobile home scenario, home services extend far beyond the physical house. With operators' network capabilities, users can securely access home storage, home cameras, and HD games from anywhere, enjoying lower latency, higher bandwidth, and more reliable connections. For operators, this turns differentiated network capabilities into tangible, value-added home services.
Huawei works with operators to build a true home AI agent—creating a foundational platform and co-developing vertical scenario ecosystems. While the home has traditionally been a relatively closed environment, Huawei leverages a unified intent portal, memory system, and scheduling framework to deeply integrate vertical-domain intelligence with the primary agent, enabling intelligent upgrades across every aspect of home life. In addition, cross-domain integration capabilities connect home devices with consumer terminals such as personal smartphones, delivering an experience that sets operators apart from traditional OTT services.
AISF capabilities are already deployed at scale in China, helping operators evolve from traditional broadband connection services to AI agent-centered home ecosystems. Looking ahead, Huawei will continue to deepen cooperation with telecom operators, device vendors, and foundation model and application developers. Together, we will drive intelligent service development, embed AI capabilities into home scenarios, and deliver a more natural, intelligent, and personalized digital life experience for users.
