Apple might finally have a way of bringing its Apple Intelligence to China. The brand announced the latest iPhone 16 lineup with new AI powered features, but these never rolled out in China. This is where DeepSeek could come in as a great solution, as per a new report.
Apple could use DeepSeek for its iPhones
China is a major market for the Cupertino based giant. Athough, Apple couldn’t roll out its AI features in the region due to local regulations. The company needs to get Apple Intelligence approved by the Chinese government to run its AI model. But the newly unveiled DeepSeek could open the door for Apple Intelligence in China and might even offer a few improvements as well.
This new AI model was developed in China and has disrupted AI giants and the industry as a whole. According to a new report from Weibo, Tim Cook is excited in the opportunity to work with DeepSeek. The iPhone maker is reportedly in the testing phase of integrating the AI model into its devices. Considering how DeepSeek also has a cheaper operating cost, it could be a serviceable alternative to Apple’s AI, which it ships in other regions.
In a recent research report, it was found that Apple was losing market share to local brands due to iPhones lacking AI functionality. Android flagships now arrive with features that leverage AI. So this might be a key strategic move from Apple. Keep in mind that this is still just an unconfirmed report at the moment, so take this news with a pinch of salt and stick around for more.
