Apple Intelligence Faces Hurdles in China's Strict Regulatory Landscape

Apple's AI push, Apple Intelligence, aims to bring AI across its devices, but it faces challenges in China. China has strict rules on AI, such as needing approval for large language models and taking down "illegal" content from generative AI. Apple would likely need to get its AI model approved in China and find a domestic partner like Baidu or Alibaba to replace OpenAI's banned ChatGPT. Localizing Apple's AI experience for Chinese customs and regulations will be challenging while respecting the nuances of the local market.
