KPN Launches AI Information Sessions and Introduces Google Pixel 8a

(IN BRIEF) KPN is initiating AI information sessions in its stores to enhance customer understanding and use of artificial intelligence, coinciding with the launch of the Google Pixel 8a. These sessions aim to educate visitors about current and future AI capabilities and how they can integrate AI into their daily lives. With the growing integration of AI in devices like smartphones, KPN recognizes a gap in digital knowledge among Dutch consumers and seeks to bridge it through these educational initiatives. The first session will take place in Amsterdam, with plans to expand across the Netherlands. Simultaneously, KPN will introduce the new Google Pixel 8a, which boasts advanced AI features, such as improved photography with AI assistance, underscoring KPN’s commitment to blending cutting-edge technology with consumer education.

(PRESS RELEASE) ROTTERDAM, 8-May-2024 — /EuropaWire/ — To make customers better acquainted with AI (Artificial Intelligence), KPN is starting information sessions about artificial intelligence. Visitors to the KPN stores are introduced to artificial intelligence, what the possibilities are now and in the future and how they can get started with it themselves. KPN wants to increase the digital knowledge and skills of customers.

For consumers, AI is becoming increasingly applicable in everyday life. Write texts, make summaries, create images or even make music in a simple way. All applications that can be found online. In addition, AI is also increasingly integrated into, for example, the mobile phone. At the same time, there is still a large group of Dutch people who have not yet become acquainted with AI or do not know whether AI can help them in daily life. KPN wants to help customers with this by sharing knowledge.

“Our stores are the ideal place where KPN customers can go if they have questions. Not only about their products but also about other digital applications and trends,” says Martin Boers, director of all KPN stores. “Our KPN Experience stores already regularly offer knowledge sessions. With the information sessions about AI, we respond to the growing demand from customers who would like to know more about artificial intelligence. Tomorrow in Amsterdam, soon in Eindhoven and throughout the Netherlands.”

On the day of the first knowledge sessions about AI, the latest mobile phone will also be launched at KPN: the Pixel 8a, developed by Google. With the Pixel 8a you can take beautiful photos with the Pixel Camera. And you can get more done faster with Google AI, like sharpening blurry photos. The Pixel 8a can be found in all KPN stores from tomorrow (May 8, 2024), together with the Pixel 8 and the Pixel 8 Pro.

Robin Clements, CMO of KPN: “I am happy to confirm the rumors, the Google Pixel can be found at KPN. Google is no stranger to KPN. Just look at the success of KPN TV+ on Android TV. The innovative power and AI applications in Pixel perform well on the best mobile network from KPN. We are happy to introduce KPN customers to the latest device via KPN.com and in our stores.”
