Apple’s AI evolution is not quite a revolution

Apple has unveiled its first generative artificial intelligence offerings, known as Apple Intelligence, which will be integrated into the company's operating system updates later this year. The AI capabilities include a major upgrade for Siri, Apple's digital assistant. While Apple's entry into the AI race has excited investors, many of the new features demonstrated by Apple appear similar to those already offered by Microsoft and Google. It is unclear how Apple plans to generate additional revenue from its AI services, and the cost of its OpenAI partnership is also unknown. Apple's AI strategy is likely to place a strong emphasis on its hardware products.

For Apple’s AI push, China is a missing piece

Apple is searching for a Chinese partner to offer its Apple Intelligence services, as its current AI models are not available in China. The company has held talks with several Chinese firms, including Alibaba Group and Baidu, but no deal has been announced yet. In China, smartphone makers are incorporating AI functions into their devices at a faster pace than Apple, causing the iPhone brand to fall behind its local competitors. Apple's iCloud service in China is also subject to Chinese government regulations, and the country's rising patriotism could affect the company's standing.

Apple’s challenge in China rises with new rival phones and AI delay

Chinese rivals are putting pressure on Apple by selling smartphones with advanced features that are not available on iPhones in China. Chinese consumers are not getting the latest AI services offered by Apple's competitors, such as Huawei, Honor, and Oppo. This delay in providing AI services in China puts Apple at a disadvantage and has led to declining iPhone sales in the country. Additionally, Apple's commission charges for app developers have caused backlash and are being scrutinized by regulators globally. Apple is currently negotiating commission practices with Tencent and ByteDance.

Apple’s wearable ideas include smart glasses and cameras in your ears

Apple is exploring the development of AI-powered smart glasses and camera-equipped AirPods, according to Mark Gurman from Bloomberg. The smart glasses would serve as a cheaper alternative to the Vision Pro, featuring more sensors, AI capabilities, and better battery life. Although they are not the high-quality transparent displays that Apple aims for in AR glasses, they would resemble Meta Ray-Bans with cameras and an AI assistant. Additionally, Apple is exploring the idea of adding low-resolution cameras to AirPods, potentially paired with AI to assist users with their routines. These developments aim to enhance Apple's wearables division as it seeks new opportunities in the market.
