Embodiments include methods for managing information transmission between a base station and a wireless device. A base station may apply an encoder neural network to assistance information that may aid a wireless device in communicating with the base station to generate encoded assistance information. The base station may transmit the encoded assistance information to the wireless device via a control or data channel. The wireless device may use the encoded assistance information to update one or more behaviors of the wireless device without decoding the encoded assistance information. The wireless device may include a different neural network configured to learn how to use the encoded assistance information to update one or more behaviors of the wireless device.
