Extended Reality (XR) is one of the most important 5G/6G media applications that will fundamentally transform human interactions. However, ensuring low latency, high data rate, and reliability to support XR services poses significant challenges. This letter presents a novel AI-assisted service provisioning scheme that leverages predicted frames for processing rather than relying solely on actual frames. This method virtually increases the network delay budget and consequently improves service provisioning, albeit at the expense of minor prediction errors. The proposed scheme is validated by extensive simulations demonstrating a multi-fold increase in supported XR users and also provides crucial network design insights.
