Modern dense networks face a ton of unpredictable interference and variable traffic patterns. Wifi is a victim of it's own success. It's literally everywhere and thus all of these sources clobber the airwaves around them. This makes the traditional methods for traffic management and resource allocation of the airwaves too complex to fully implement.
However, your usage of LLM isn't correct here. Wifi 7 doesn't use a large language model, it uses what is called a Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) model. Wifi 7 isn't trying to be generative, it's being administrative. It's looking at the airwaves as they are, and attempting to find an optimization for the current situation it is in.
In most cases the wifi coverage is not such that the NPU needs to step in. Traditional methods for transmission can be used, but in cases where you're walking in a mall or in an apartment complex. You have tons of APs vying for the same resource. AI is used here to listen to what's going on out in the world and come up with a method to target the highest bandwidth that can be achieved.

That’s not AI, that’s an algorithm.
