Deutsche Telekom expects AI and automation to generate €2.5 billion in indirect-cost savings by 2030 compared with 2023. Reuters reported that applications include predicting peak network traffic and supporting customer-service operations.

The group also targets €1.1 billion in savings outside the United States in 2027 and about €800 million in AI-related revenue by 2030. Those figures are management goals, not realised results, and depend on deployment quality as well as workforce and customer adoption.
