With the maturity of 5G technology and global commercialization, scholars in institutions and industrial circles began to research 6G technology. An important innovation of 6G technology is to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) technology and communication technology to build a highly endogenous intelligent communication network. This paper investigates the process of AI technology introduced into the field of communication and reviews the use cases of the simulation and application of AI algorithms being discussed in 3GPP meetings in industry circles. In this research report, we first investigate the progress of AI technology in 5G network architecture and then discuss the requirements of endogenous intelligent 6G networks, which leads to the possible network architecture. This work aims to provide enlightening guidance for subsequent research of intelligence-endogenous 6G network.
