After two years, China says 'yes' to allow Apple Intelligence on iPhones in the country

After a two-year wait, China has finally greenlit Apple's artificial intelligence service for its iPhones, marking a significant step for tech giants like Apple in one of the world's largest and most competitive tech markets. Alibaba and Baidu are set to collaborate on the technical aspects, which could bring advanced AI features to iPhone users in China by late 2026 or early 2027. This approval not only opens up a lucrative market for Apple but also underscores China's growing role in the global AI landscape, potentially influencing future tech trends and partnerships.
