Signal Reflections: What a Worthwhile Use of AI Looks Like
n this space last month, I wrote about the hot buzzwords at June’s IMS in Boston, one of which was “artificial intelligence.” Now, I don’t know about you, but outside of the context of my professional life, I’ve grown weary of hearing about AI.
The pop-culture perception of AI represents something less than honorable. Social media is drowning in “AI slop.” The hallucinations of large language models (LLMs) often end up in legal filings, sometimes to judges’ horror and/or amusement. And in case you missed it, an autonomous AI agent created by OpenAI recently went rogue and hacked a tech startup.

David MaliniakDavid Maliniak
Executive Editor, Microwaves & RF
I am Executive Editor of Microwaves & RF, an all-digital publication that broadly covers all aspects of wireless communications. More particularly, we're keeping a close eye on technologies in the consumer-oriented 5G, 6G, IoT, M2M, and V2X markets, in which much of the wireless market's growth will occur in this decade and beyond. I work with a great team of editors to provide engineers, developers, and technical managers with interesting and useful articles and videos on a regular basis. Check out our free newsletters to see the latest content.
You can send press releases for new products for possible coverage on the website. I am also interested in receiving contributed articles for publishing on our website. Use our contributor's packet, in which you'll find an article template and lots more useful information on how to properly prepare content for us, and send to me along with a signed release form.
