Abstract
Next-generation (xG) wireless networks, with their complex and dynamic nature, present significant challenges to using traditional optimization techniques. Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) emerges as a powerful tool due to its unique strengths. Unlike traditional optimization techniques and other machine learning methods, GAI excels at learning from real-world network data, capturing its intricacies. This enables safe, offline exploration of various configurations and generation of diverse, unseen scenarios, empowering proactive, data-driven exploration and optimization for xG networks. Additionally, GAI’s scalability makes it ideal for large-scale xG networks. This paper surveys how GAI-based models unlock optimization opportunities in xG wireless networks. We begin by providing a review of GAI models and some of the major communication paradigms of xG (e.g., Sixth Generation) wireless networks. We then delve into exploring how GAI can be used to improve resource allocation and enhance overall network performance. Additionally, we briefly review the networking requirements for supporting GAI applications in xG wireless networks. The paper further discusses the key challenges and future research directions in leveraging GAI for network optimization. Finally, a case study demonstrates the application of a diffusion-based GAI model for load balancing, carrier aggregation, and backhauling optimization in non-terrestrial networks, a core technology of xG networks. This case study serves as a practical example of how the combination of reinforcement learning and GAI can be implemented to address real-world network optimization problems.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
