Apple will finally be able to launch Apple Intelligence in China, but the cost is allowing Alibaba to manipulate AI output to be acceptable to the Chinese government.
So, in an unprecedented move, Apple has partnered with multiple AI companies in China to help ensure its customers can use a sanitized version of Apple Intelligence.
According to a report from Bloomberg, Apple's ability to bring Apple Intelligence to China relies solely on giving the government the ability to censor the output.
Apple is expected to have an update that enables Apple Intelligence on iPhones sold in China by May.
Apple claimed that regions like China were weaker during the Q4 earnings call because of the lack of Apple Intelligence in the region.
